Description
Every fundraising professional is thinking it: what are we supposed to do about our annual fundraising event now?!
Each spring, Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital hosts the 'Gala in the Garden,' a 500-person fundraising event to raise money for the organization. This year, due to COVID, the development team pivoted and hosted a completely virtual event.
Hear from Alicia Moyer and Vicki Rigby, members of the development team at Good Shepherd, about their approach to the evening and how they engaged donors in the comfort of their homes. Then we'll turn it over to the audience for your comments and questions about the events you have planned for the rest of the year.
