Public-private partnerships play a growing role in stewarding and preserving public lands. To secure contributions, organizations must understand the philanthropic environment and engage donors. In this session, we’ll begin with sharing data and trends, underlining the opportunity and risk in today's philanthropic landscape. We’ll then move into a facilitated conversation with attendees focusing on fundraising tactics which will enable audience members to complete a basic outline of a fundraising program that is nimble and sustainable.
