2024 Online Annual Fundraising Conference

Each year, the Papillon team feel that conference had been the best ever, but, the 2024 one really does feel the best so far. And delegates’ feedback backs this up. Clara Kwizera stressed the importance of building up reserves (and this does not prevent new donations!); Nazma Hendricks shared the value and benefits of working in partnerships (donors like to see this); Ruen Govinder shared her wealth of experience in digital branding for NPOs; Warren Lodge reminded everyone of the vital role that storytelling plays in fundraising and marketing NPOs.

Global leader in fundraising via video gaming, Julian Barrell, introduced the exciting opportunity (that knows no geographical boundaries). Another first, from one of the UK’s most respected fundraising consultants, Howard Lake, was an introduction to artificial intelligence (AI) and its role in sustainable fundraising. Organisations in which fundraisers adopt AI will outpace those where this critical technology is ignored. . .

iZinga chair, Derek Lubner and CEO, Henk Swanepoel, were back with an update on this outstanding and much needed initiative to assure donors of verified NPO’s credibility to receiving money.

Panellists, Daphney Nemakhavhani and Sibonelo Dube unpacked the complex topic of ‘Black Tax’ and its impact on donations; Erica Schofield, Lakiwe Blekiwe & Koketso Diole discussed updates in the field of crowdfunding.

So vital is donor research that both Carolin Gomulia and Dr Carolyne Opinde covered this topic.

The iconic Bernard Ross was back with an outstanding masterclass on ‘Making the Ask.’

Thank you so much for hosting another exceptional and invaluable NPO Fundraising Conference!

Thank you for hosting such a well organised and important conference. My favourite presentation was the last, with Bernard Ross. I hope we will see more of him, and I look forward to attending again next year.

All presenters were very inspiring. I wish I could have known of Papillon’s conferences earlier! What a conference! Thank you so much. I really appreciated it.

Thank you for the opportunity to be part of this extraordinary event. This fundraising conference was truly exceptional! I sincerely appreciate the effort you put into ensuring that we stay up to date with developments in the sector. The concept of an online conference is commendable due to its accessibility and the ability to tap into expertise from any part of the globe. If it were not for a virtual conference and Papillon’s subsidised fees, I would have missed this one. We have been equipped and I am grateful for the network of support that we build through these conferences.

Ah! What a marvellous, filling two days!! What an outstanding effort from the entire Papillon team, thank YOU so much for the opportunity to stretch myself beyond myself! What a treat to be in the presence of such incredible industry professionals.

Thank you SO much for the privilege of attending the Fundraising Conference. It was invaluable and I am itching to sink my teeth into the many changes I want to make as a result.

Thank you for the incredible conference. It was my first time attending, and I found it extremely informative and interesting. I know that the Papillon teams put a lot of effort into choosing the speakers, and they were excellent – it is rare to attend a conference where every single speaker is engaging, relevant, and a good presenter!

Thank you so much for all you have done to help the sector.

A massive THANK YOU to Jill and the Papillon team for what was such an incredible, informative and equipping conference. I will certainly be attending the others coming up

Thank you for organising an insightful, inspiring, and enlightening conference. The speakers were excellent and finishing with Bernard, was awesome.

What an amazing conference. All presentations so practical and each presenter seemed to really enjoys their presentations.

Thanks for a great webinar.
