Charitable giving is changing—and fraternal foundations are on the front lines of that transformation. As philanthropy increasingly concentrates among a smaller circle of affluent donors, foundation leaders face rising expectations, generational shifts, and ongoing economic uncertainty.
Drawing on the Bank of America Study of Philanthropy, this keynote will deliver timely perspective on the realities fraternal fundraisers face today. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how affluent households give, volunteer, and make philanthropic decisions. Throughout the session, data‑driven insights are paired with practical considerations that professionals can apply in partnership with boards and volunteers––building confidence and increasing success when engaging high‑capacity donors.
Participants will leave with sharper clarity into what truly motivates major donors—including how economic and social forces are shaping donor behavior through 2026 and beyond. With access to the research report, foundations will be better equipped to include a data-driven lens when securing majors and transformational gifts, and to turn insights into lasting philanthropic impact.
