Description
This session will focus on the challenges that development operations face in today’s fundraising environment because for the first time in history we are soliciting gifts from four distinct generations—Civics, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y (Net).  Each generation approaches their philanthropy differently, and responds to different approaches and appeals.  The session will offer insights and strategies to effectively reaching each generation, and review the differences among each.  Additionally, the session will cover how generational differences will impact development, not only in the short-term, but also the long term.
