We all want to feel like we are cared about and that we belong. In your business, listening to stories, passions, what's important to your donors happens long before you make the ask. Maybe now more than ever, understanding what others are feeling and where they would like to invest their treasure might look different. The pandemic created an even greater need for this sense of belonging and community, but the struggle is real. It might be that we all need to feel a little more connected, a sense of belonging, and that who I am is even more important than what I do. This keynote will discuss the importance of belonging, bring some joy to our time and space together, and hopefully leave you with a sense of you are important to helping others feel like they belong. It's who you are, not just what you do.

Pennington and Company has researched, compiled and evaluated IRS Form 990 filings for fiscal years 2003 to 2021 for Greek foundations. They will deliver the findings of their research and discuss the trends from both the administrative and donor perspectives, as well as analyze the opportunities and challenges that Greek foundations face in regard to operations and fundraising. This session provides baseline data on the state of the industry in regards to assets, dollars raised and various expenses. It also provides comparisons to higher education and public and private foundations.
