Connection is the Heart of Fundraising: Why We’re Sponsoring the 2026 Summit
We talk a lot about algorithms, open rates, and ad spend here at Good Dog Strategies. We love the data. We love the tech.
But hose are just the vehicles. The fuel is human connection.
No matter how smart your AI tools get, fundraising is still about one person asking another person to care.
That’s why we are thrilled to announce that Good Dog Strategies is a proud sponsor of the Nonprofit Fundraising Summit: The Great Connection, coming to a screen near you on March 4-5.
This isn't just another webinar. It’s a massive, two-day virtual gathering designed to help you bridge the gap between high-tech innovation and high-touch donor relationships.
And the best part? It is 100% free.
The Hosts With the Most
A huge shout-out to the team behind this event. It takes a village to host 12,000+ nonprofit pros, and these organizations have pulled out all the stops:
CauseVox: For championing community-driven fundraising.
The Nonprofit Cooperative: For bringing the sector together.
Public Interest Registry: The folks behind .ORG who keep our digital world turning.
Why You Need to Be There
The theme this year is “Connection is the Heart of Fundraising.”
It feels timely, doesn't it? As we all rush to adopt the latest AI tools, there is a risk of losing the personal touch. This summit is designed to stop that from happening.
The agenda is packed with over 50 sessions that blend the tactical with the emotional. You’ll hear from heavy hitters like Edward Norton (yes, that Edward Norton), Vu Le (Nonprofit AF), and Jamie Tworkowski.
They aren't just talking theory. They are diving into:
AI & Tech: How to use automation to free up time for genuine donor interactions (not replace them).
Social Media: Moving beyond "likes" to building actual community.
Storytelling: Ethical ways to connect emotionally without exploiting your beneficiaries.
No Travel Budget? No Problem.
We know that for many nonprofits, professional development budgets are the first thing to get cut (if they exit at all).
That’s why we love this event. It removes the barrier to entry.
Cost: FREE.
Location: Your desk (or your couch).
Networking: You’ll join a cohort of 12,000+ peers facing the exact same challenges you are.
