What does successful pivoting look like? And, more importantly, how is it done?

Since the onset of the COVID-19, nonprofits have rapidly pivoted their programs and services—and the fundraising that fuels them. Months into this work, it’s time to ask: What does successful pivoting look like? And, more importantly, how is it done? Even as we learn from past crises, leading our communities through a crisis of this scale and complexity will require unprecedented innovation. In this event series, we’ll explore how organizations in key nonprofit sectors are pivoting—and what they’re learning along the way.

This panel will bring together leaders from diverse nonprofits in the sector to discuss how they’re building relevancy for their organization, engaging donors in new ways, and generating sustainable revenue for their mission.
