GivingTuesday shares benefits of starting a Community Giving Day.
Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting a webinar with Victoria Leonhardt from GivingTuesday to discuss the benefits of running Giving Days, and how your organization can utilize them to serve your community.
In this engaging, example-driven session, Victoria walked us through the core benefits of running a Giving Day and shared practical strategies for executing one successfully. Additionally, we heard directly from organizations who have hosted Giving Days of their own, offering real-world perspectives on what works and how to get started.
Whether you’re an experienced Giving Day host looking to sharpen your approach or someone curious about whether a Giving Day is right for your organization, this session is packed with insights and inspiration you can put to work right away.
The Erie Community Foundation is rethinking what it means to support grantees...and it’s paying off.
Recently, we shared a conversation with The Erie Community Foundation about how real-time data and process improvements are transforming the way they work with community needs at the center.
In this interactive webinar, we explored how Erie has shifted from traditional grant reporting to post-grant meetings, enabling deeper alignment between grantee intent and foundation outcomes. You’ll hear how they’re leveraging technology through akoyaGO to streamline internal processes, gather meaningful outputs, and focus on collaboration.
Whether you’re exploring ways to reduce burden on grantees or seeking more responsive, data-driven decision-making tools, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
