Understanding & Leveraging EOY Giving

Understanding & Leveraging EOY Giving

The year-end giving surge moves more money than any season of the year, yet much of it may never reach the programs it was meant for. This session digs into why this happens, the role of donor psychology, tax policies, and donation structures, and how donors and non-profits can work together to close the gap between intention and impact.
