Event Details

Time: 8:00 AM – 11:30 PM

Featured Speaker: Joanna Hogan

Joanna Hogan is a trusted advisor and educator with three decades of leadership in the nonprofit sector. As the founder of Inspire Generosity, she’s rewriting the rules of fundraising with her innovative DREAMS™ framework, empowering leaders to inspire generosity in ways that feel genuine, purposeful, and deeply human.


Moving from Giving Back to Building Forward Generosity isn’t a gesture. It’s a strategy. 

Let’s be honest. Most business–nonprofit partnerships stay shallow. A logo here, a handshake there. It’s transactional and quickly forgotten. But that’s not what you’re after. You want your business to be a force for good. You care about aligning profit with purpose. And you believe that, together, we can create real, lasting change.

This session offers a grounded, relationship-first roadmap for turning generosity into meaningful impact. You’ll learn how to identify aligned partners, build trust before you give, and co-create initiatives that matter. Whether you're supporting a local nonprofit or championing a bigger vision, this isn’t about giving more. It’s about giving differently—with strategy, alignment, and purpose.
