And all of the sudden it’s conference season. Again! And not a moment too soon… we have a lot of talking/scheming/planning/acting ahead of us this year. Here’s where you can find us over the next month or so:

ANA Nonprofit Conference

February 25-27, Oxon Hill, MD
A small group of us are headed to the MGM at National Harbor next week. How about you? We’d love to say hello! Let us know here.

You won’t want to miss our session! M+R’s Senior Vice President Jessica Bosanko and Vice President Alli Bailey will be joined by Libbie Hayward, Director, Direct Response at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Anita Yankova, Deputy Vice President, Digital Marketing & Fundraising at the International Fund for Animal Welfare in a lively session on Thursday, February 27 at 1:05pm:

“The 75th Club: Secrets from the Top Fundraising Programs”

Every year we publish M+R Benchmarks on digital fundraising program performance, looking at what’s up, what’s down, and what’s next. But here’s the thing: those numbers reflect the average performance. What about those who are performing above average? What are they doing differently? What are their secrets to success? In this session, we will look at organizations in Benchmarks’ top 75th percentile and explore what sets these top performers apart from their peers, highlighting innovative approaches, effective tactics, and lessons learned in the ever-evolving digital landscape.

Good times!

The Nonprofit Alliance Fundraisers Symposium

March 12-14, Washington, DC
TNPA has been among those leading the charge on behalf of our nonprofit community to preserve our missions and the people we serve during these rough and uncertain times — and that’s just one really good reason you’ll want to be there. M+R CEO & Partner Yoonhyung Lee and Partner Sarah DiJulio are looking forward to digging in for some vital conversations. We wouldn’t miss it. Will you be there? Let us know here!

***But wait, there’s more!

M+R’s data co-op, Scout Quest, is even better for 2025 and we’re hosting a webinar to discuss how at 4pm ET on Wednesday, March 4. Register today to hear how Katrina Sotiropoulos from Feeding America used Scout Quest to generate a massive ROI over email and advertising. Then, folks from M+R can walk through what’s new in Scout Quest for 2025!
