RSD4 summit at the Banff Centre
Redesigning the charitable sector to answer the following system questions at micro and macro levels:
- What would society look like of a charity X didn't exist?
- What would the cost to a community be?
- Can this be measured?
- What would it look like if everyone had access to all the informaiton about the charities they were supporting? What info is relevant and what is noise?
- Could we reduce the duplication in the marketplace? Could we create a marketplace?
- Can charity data support urban planning and smart cities? Can we use this info to predict the next social issue far enough in advance that policy makers and solution creators have enough time to manage the issue?
- Should we restructure the way that we incentivize donors beyond the charitable tax receipt and what about for-profit social impact investors, is there a way to incentivize their early-stage investments to encourage a social marketplace?
- Can we change a funding model from financing problems to rewarding executives and managers for coming up with solutions that push the needle on issues?

Crowdfunding: The Future of Nonprofit FundraisingJulie Holt, CNP
The Internet is making it easier for donors to connect with meaningful social projects in their community and for local organizations to engage their supporters from all over. This poster presentation focuses on best practices in crowdfunding for nonprofits with an emphasis on examples of viral projects. The poster will look at past crowdfunding projects and evaluate its effectiveness. Best Practices will be identified and explored so nonprofits can utilize this new fundraising technique in the future.
Enterprise Online Fundraising Plan and ResearchRebecca Higman
Enterprise Community Partners (a nonprofit national leader in investment capital and development services for affordable housing and community revitalization) spent some time wondering how to up their online fundraising results, and a whole lot more time acting.

This presentation was first shared at the Network for Good and Maryland Nonprofits "ePhilanthropy 101: Effective & Inexpensive Fundraising in a Downturn" program on March 27, 2009.
See3 CEO Michael Hoffman gave this talk to the 2013 International Fundraising Conference in the Netherlands. Watch to find out why what you thought you knew about social media fundraising should go right out the window.
In this webinar, FirstGiving and the Organization for Autism Research draw from 2 year's worth of fundraising data collected from the New York, Chicago, and Boston marathon to give you best practices and tips to maximize your marathon fundraising. Whether you're a nonprofit or an individual raising money, follow these tips for sound success.
Now is a very exciting time for charitable fundraising. Not only is economic confidence slowly recovering, there has also been a fundamental change in the way causes are promoted which is having a massive impact on public donations.
Web- and text-based donation platforms, boosted by vast-scale viral promotions over social media, have altered the way people give - and the way not-for-profit (NFP) organisations raise awareness for their activities. What’s so powerful about these more dynamic fundraising opportunities is that they can have a huge and immediate impact, in a way that is both highly targeted, yet with vast reach – and typically for a fraction of the cost of traditional campaigns.
In the third sector, the transition to emerging Web 3.0 opportunities has prompted its own new terminology. Charities and NFPs are now being encouraged to adopt ‘Fundraising 3.0’ strategies – ie new approaches to fundraising based on analyses of donor behaviour.
But how geared up are charities and other NFPs to take full advantage of these new opportunities?
We hope you find this whitepaper useful. To find out more about the technology available to help with Fundraising 3.0 please contact us on 0845 160 6162
