The Future of Generosity

Join philanthropy executive (and former annual giving leader!) Dianne Chipps Bailey for an inspiring and data-driven exploration of our fundraising landscape. Drawing from the 2025 Bank of America Study of Philanthropy, she will share her perspective for higher education annual giving professionals. We’ll gain insights to navigate today’s challenging environment and identify reasons to be excited about the future.

Discover encouraging trends and practical strategies, including:

• Broad philanthropic movements and what they mean for your work
• Encouraging data on the rising generation and women’s giving
• Why Millennials and Gen Z give differently—and what motivates them
• A mindset for emerging stronger from current challenges
• Why working in annual giving is important to any professional journey
• …and more!

Dianne will show us pathways forward, so we can continue conversations feeling grounded and optimistic about the future of fundraising.
