Opening Keynote — Every Donor Should Feel Known: The New Era of Connected Fundraising
Rob Wu — CauseVox
Flow
About This Session
Every donor wants to feel known. Yet too often, nonprofits are forced to piece together donor relationships across disconnected fundraising tools, CRMs, email platforms, event software, and spreadsheets. The result? More time spent managing systems, less time building the relationships that inspire generosity. We’re entering a new era of fundraising. In this opening keynote, CauseVox Co-Founder and CEO Rob Wu introduces Connected Fundraising — a fundamentally different approach where your technology works together so your team can understand each supporter’s complete story, create more personal donor experiences, and spend less time on administration. Because Connected Fundraising isn’t really about technology. It’s about making every donor feel seen, valued, and known. Join Rob as he shares why Connected Fundraising represents the next era of nonprofit fundraising and how building stronger relationships — not simply collecting more transactions — is the key to sustainable growth and making your impact overflow.

How to Walk Into EOY With Your Monthly Giving Program Finally Built
Dana Snyder — Positive Equation
Flow
About This Session
You don’t need another overview of why monthly giving matters. You already know it matters. The problem is that it’s June and your program still isn’t built. This live training walks through a proven 5-step framework using real examples of small nonprofits going from stuck to launched — program named, landing page written, ask sequenced, donors retained.

The Human Side of Fundraising: A Fireside Chat with Seth Godin + Tammy Zonker
Seth Godin & Tammy Zonker — Author / Fundraising Transformed
Flow
About This Session
Fundraising has never been about asking for money. At its best, it’s about inviting people into something meaningful. Seth Godin and Tammy Zonker explore how trust, empathy, and authentic relationships shape the future of fundraising — why generosity grows from connection, how organizations earn lasting donor trust, and what it means to create experiences supporters genuinely want to be part of.

Flipping Tables w/ Vu and Candace
Vu Le & Candace Cody — Nonprofit AF / CauseVox
Flow
About This Session

Come ready to feel energized, validated, and maybe slightly upset at the shenanigans forced on nonprofits.

AI Was Supposed to Give You Capacity. So Why Is Everyone Exhausted?
Tim Lockie — The Human Stack
Flow
About This Session
Every nonprofit has been told AI will hand time back to its team. Most teams find the opposite, at least at first. Learning the tool, rebuilding the workflow, working out who owns what, and absorbing the third new system this year all draw down the same finite resource: your organisation’s capacity for change. Explore why AI adoption stalls at exactly the point it should start paying off, and why organisations getting the most from AI are usually the ones that did fewer things. Leave able to judge whether your team is ready for the next thing — with permission not to do it yet.

Nick Black & Mark Cross — GoodUnited / DoRoJo Productions
Rise
About This Session
What if some of your lapsed supporters never stopped caring — they just stopped responding in the places you kept trying to reach them? Nick Black and content expert Mark Cross unpack three ways nonprofits can create more supporter relationships from assets they already have: reconnecting with lapsed supporters in the CRM, turning social content into an acquisition engine, and using paid social to start direct relationships. Leave with three practical plays for your year-end strategy.

As nonprofit leaders prepare for GivingTuesday and year-end, conversations often revolve around raising more, asking better, and reaching bigger goals.

What is CauseVox, and why are you hosting this summit?

We believe fundraising works better when everything is connected: donor data, campaigns, communications, reporting, and action.

When teams have one unified system, they can reduce busywork, see the full donor picture, and build stronger supporter relationships with more clarity and confidence. That’s the philosophy behind CauseVox, a connected fundraising and CRM platform built to help nonprofits move with less fragmentation and more momentum.

That’s why we’re hosting The Nonprofit Fundraising Summit: Impact Overflow. In a year when nonprofit teams are being asked to do more with less, this free summit is designed to help fundraisers refill their cup, refocus their strategy, and head into year-end with practical tools, fresh perspective, and community behind them.

Fill your cup. Watch the Impact Overflow.

How do I get recordings?

The Impact+ Pass is an optional paid upgrade that gives you access to summit content beyond the live event. While The Nonprofit Fundraising Summit: Impact Overflow is completely free to attend live, recordings and bonus resources are only available with an Impact+ Pass.

Early bird pricing is $79 through June 30. After that, the Impact+ Pass is $149.

What’s the difference between the free Summit and the Impact+ Pass?

With a free registration, you get full live access to all 50+ sessions across 3 stages on September 30–October 1, 2026. You can attend sessions in real time, participate in chat, and engage with speakers and fellow attendees.

The Impact+ Pass gives you everything you need to keep learning before and after the summit. You’ll get immediate access to recordings from our past summit, plus all Impact Overflow session recordings after the live event, slide decks, session highlight notes, chat logs with shared resources, access to a private community, bonus training, and 2 months of CauseVox Pro with a VIP campaign launch sprint.

Early bird pricing is $79 through June 30. Full price is $149.

Think of it this way: the free ticket gets you in the room, and the Impact+ Pass makes sure nothing gets left behind.
