Thank you everyone who came together with us last week for "Reshaping the Future Philanthropic Landscape - Engaging Younger Donors" with Dr. Brooke Wood from the Anchorage Museum. The conversation was lively as we discussed the research and data on Gen Z and Millennial donors and what's worked for our organizations in practice.

Fundraising professionals from Alaska Botanical Gardens, Alzheimer's Resource of Alaska, Alaska Community Foundation, Alaska Children's Trust, ACLU- Alaska, UAA, Special Olympics Alaska, and more joined us and shared their insights and wisdom. Our next event will be a social gathering in June - stay tuned for more information.

Last week at AFP ICON, Alaska Chapter Board Chair Celeste Earley and Incoming (2027) Chair Jason Dinneen had the opportunity to chat with other Chapter leaders and share ideas.

AFP chapters come in all shapes and sizes, with some states having many chapters within it and even paid staff, to smaller operations like Alaska's. Our leadership appreciated the chance to meet with others with similar leadership positions as well as with AFP Board Chair Roger D. Ali.

Direct mail continues to be one of the most powerful ways for nonprofits to reach donors, build trust, and drive fundraising results.

In a world of crowded inboxes and digital noise, physical mail creates a tangible connection that stands out. When executed strategically, direct mail can generate strong response rates, strengthen donor relationships, and deliver meaningful fundraising impact.

In this practical webinar, you will learn how to build and execute effective nonprofit direct mail campaigns. They will cover the full process from campaign planning and audience segmentation to storytelling, design, production, and performance measurement.

Join AFP-Global to discover practical strategies for making direct mail a core part of your nonprofit fundraising strategy.

Join AFP Alaska in person or online for our AFP PM, “Reshaping the Future Philanthropic Landscape - Engaging Younger Donors” on Wednesday, May 6 from 4-5:30 p.m.

Generation Z and Millennials are approaching philanthropy in new ways. During this session, we will take a deeper look at how Next Gen donors engage with the philanthropic sector. We’ll gain insight into how younger donors contribute to the causes they support and how their giving compares to previous generations.

🖊️ Register here: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/2nhp7zk?source_id=36a0db75-07bf-4ff3-b37c-1aff4af6e906&source_type=em&c=4egThQnURjM0tFa8a9PdGwCksG6MRMFT07q93stG7rl_uoPlcGZkEg==

To engage younger donors, fund development professionals will need to adopt a long-game mindset as they build meaningful relationships to connect heart with mission impact. Join us to learn more about the needs and interests of next generation donors, the evolving patterns of giving by younger donors, and the opportunities those challenges may present.

Thanks to those who joined us at ICON tonight for an Alaska-focused evening! The Conference can be a lot of social time, but these troopers went all out and still made time to spend together in our own community.

Alaskan nonprofits are strong in part because of those raising the dollars to continue the work. 💪🏽
