In 2016, Blackbaud launched the Blackbaud Institute for Philanthropic Impact. It was out of our belief that, beyond the technology we produce that helps organizations be efficient, we can play a major role in helping your organizations be more effective because we are able to deliver data that provides valuable insights to overall giving trends as well as household donor demographics and behaviors.
This program will give you a snapshot of not only some of that work but also provide a bird’s eye view of what we’re seeing across the sector. We’ll cover the macro trends on giving, donor insights, key trends to watch for, and share what’s coming next.
