This is a recording of our last meeting where we spoke about the updates coming to the group! If you'd like to be a part of this growth phase of next gen, please let me know!

Hi All, As you've probably seen, we are implementation some changes with Next Gen. We now have an executive board, we're reaching out to current and prospective members, individuals from alumni relations and annual giving, prospective speakers, refining our communications, and working to ensure there isn't just one voice. We are moving our communications to Slack because we believe the streamlining of communication will help better the experience for each of you. We will send out meeting reminders, communications, and more on Slack, utilizing our LinkedIn more, and shifting our meeting medium to Google Meet or Teams. Please bear with us as we transition to this next phase of our group, and we hope to see you there! Daniel Freeman Ed.D Founder Next Gen Fundraising Network

Hi Ya'll, WE'RE LIVE! Hope to see everyone RIGHT NOW at 9 am ET. Last week we spoke about the "High5" test and where each of you stood. This week we'll be building on that with an internal focus. We want you to ask yourself, "Which areas can I improve upon?" Head on over to?https://high5test.com/?and take the free test before our call on Friday. We'd like to explore individuals who have opposite strengths and weaknesses. That will allow for some peer mentorship! After that, we'd like to have some time for those who identified their interest in joining our executive board, and those who are interested but have not identified themselves. See you then!
