At the Cancer Foundation of Santa Barbara, we make it a priority to stay current with philanthropic trends to effectively engage and inspire our audience. As younger generations lead a new era of giving, we are adapting to meet their expectations and values. According to the Forbes article, "The Future Of Giving: Trends Shaping Next-Gen Philanthropy," "90% of those surveyed [Millennials] state they are more motivated to give by a compelling mission and would stop giving if they distrusted an organization… and 24% have donated after learning about a cause on social media." https://lnkd.in/g4CDZZ_t To cultivate and preserve the trust of next-gen donors, our team focuses on maintaining #transparency, growing our social media presence, sharing real-life stories, and highlighting the tangible #impact of our donors' contributions. For example, each year we post the Cancer Foundation's IRS Form 990 and a detailed annual report on our website, which we encourage #donors to review. By integrating these strategies, we aim to foster lasting relationships with young donors and make a measurable difference in our community.

Dispatches from the June 12 ANA Nonprofit Federation Growth Summit: Impact Through Data-Driven Excellence in #Fundraising and #Marketing afternoon sessions in New York, N.Y. David&Goliath/Today, I'm Brave’s David Angelo: Through qualitative #data, we learned that personal stories of resilience and bravery resonated deeply with our audience, driving engagement and donations. PlowShare Group’s Allegra Mira: In the digital age, public trust is won and lost through message experience and interaction—delivery mode, consistency in communicating, and getting the message. At PlowShare, our core data asset is our PSA Airings data. 22MM Data Records The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Becky Kamowitz: PSA spots sourced from “Big See” kiosk interactions, driving $58 MM in donated media value from 2019-2024, with most airings occurring in local market broadcasts. Data Axle’s Susan G. McMullen: Test, see what your donors respond to... The answer is not always what you anticipate. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center’s Libbie Hayward: MSKCC bucked the trend and grew their online and DM programs by 10% in 2023.

This upcoming workshop from Working With Cancer is an incredible opportunity for anyone navigating the challenges of returning to work after a cancer diagnosis. It’s great to see such supportive spaces being provided, where real conversations about managing side effects, expectations, and negotiating reasonable adjustments are encouraged. At Tree of Life, we know that support like this is vital. Our Employee Vitality and Cancer Defense Program goes hand in hand with initiatives like these, helping employers support their teams through every phase of the cancer journey—from diagnosis and treatment to survivorship and prevention. We empower employees to improve their quality of life through a holistic approach that addresses stress management, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and more. What adjustments have made the biggest impact on your return-to-work experience? We’d love to hear your thoughts.
