As nonprofits encounter growing pressures, many funders are rethinking their approaches to learning, reporting, and accountability. Across the sector, there is a surge of interest in alternatives to extractive practices. These new methods aim to build trust, ease the burden on organizations, and promote deeper, more meaningful interactions.

Grantmaking often limits communication to formal reports after awards, focusing primarily on compliance rather than connection. This session invites funders to expand dialogue early and sustain it throughout the relationship, from application and award to ongoing reporting.

Join Blanch Vance (Grove Foundation) and Rachel Kimber (Full Circle Impact Solutions) for a candid, field-informed webinar about conversational reviews and other relationship-based reporting approaches. Together, they’ll explore practical strategies and real-world examples of moving beyond transactional processes toward relationship-centered grantmaking.

What You’ll Gain:

• Ways to incorporate conversation throughout the grantee relationship
• Strategies to align internal teams to support cultural change
• Examples of funders leading with relationship-driven grantmaking

Connecting with donors on a personal level is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. This webinar will equip you with the strategies to create individualized donor journeys that foster deeper engagement and inspire renewals and upgrades.

We’ll begin by exploring audience segmentation tactics, diving into methods like recency, monetary, frequency (RFM) analysis, interest-based categorization, and leveraging artificial intelligence (AI). Once we’ve established how to segment your audience, we’ll move on to compelling content ideas specifically designed to resonate with each unique segment.

Finally, we’ll delve into the practical mechanics of personalization, discussing how to implement these strategies via conditional content or automation or a combination of both, within your email campaigns.
