On-Line Meeting Held June 2020
COVID Pandemic Impact on Gift Revenue
Over the weeks immediately following the start of the pandemic, we had conversations with institutions about what we were seeing in trends of revenue performance. These questions were being asked of Advancement teams in the context of institutional budget adjustments. Some were being asked for revised revenue forecasts – a challenging exercise given the unprecedented nature of the pandemic’s impact on the economy.
We reached out to representatives of Raising Insight institutions who agreed that this would be a valuable and timely topic for a group discussion. The meetings objective was to share thoughts and insights. Our thanks to the Raising Insight institutions that performed an analysis of historical information and were willing to share results and insights.

THANK YOU everyone for a very successful event!
