Collaboration for the Win: How Finance and Development Can Work Together for Deeper Donor Engagement

Let's face it - fundraising and financial stewardship go hand-in-hand in any sound nonprofit. While the fundraising team is focused on raising the funds an organization needs to further its mission, an organization's finances tell an important story to donors. 

In a report from The Next Generation of American Giving, when donors are looking for financial information on nonprofits, the top two things they look for are financial efficiency and the impact of their donation. Strong collaboration between development and finance can help your organization share its impact so you can keep your donors and attract new ones.

Join us for a discussion with Megan Angle, CPA, Partner with Porte Brown LL on building an effective and strategic relationship between development and accounting departments that will lead to success for your organization.

• Steps that development and accounting teams can take to strengthen their relationship and work together.
