Fundraising growth isn’t slowing down because organizations lack opportunities. It’s slowing down because too many growth strategies are disconnected.
The nonprofits pulling ahead aren’t chasing the latest trend or relying solely on new donor acquisition. They’re building systems that help supporters give more often, stay engaged longer, and deepen their investment over time.
Join AGP’s Matthew Mielcarek and Sarah Hartke for an interactive discussion of the key findings from the 2026–2027 Giving Outlook, AGP’s annual analysis of the trends, donor behaviors, and fundraising strategies shaping the future of philanthropy.
In this one-hour session, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the forces influencing fundraising performance today and what organizations can do to position themselves for sustainable growth tomorrow.
What We’ll Explore
Drawing from the report’s findings, we’ll discuss:
- Why donor lifetime value and retention have become the most important indicators of fundraising health
- How Donor-Advised Funds, sustainer programs, mid-level giving, and planned giving are redefining growth across the sector
- What happens when these vehicles operate in isolation and what becomes possible when they’re connected
- The systems and experiences organizations need to attract, retain, and grow higher-capacity donor relationships
- The strategic implications of changing donor behavior and philanthropic wealth flows
What You’ll Walk Away With
In just one hour, you’ll gain practical insights to help your organization:
- Build stronger pathways from first gift to long-term donor commitment
- Identify opportunities to increase revenue predictability and donor value
- Assess whether your fundraising infrastructure is positioned to support future growth

For Executive Leaders
If you’re responsible for shaping your organization’s growth strategy, this webinar offers a concise, data-informed look at the donor trends and fundraising systems that will influence performance in the years ahead. The question isn’t simply where future growth will come from—it’s whether your organization is prepared to receive, retain, and grow it across every giving vehicle.
