Each generation engages with organizations differently—what inspires Baby Boomers might not resonate with Millennials or Gen Z. This session will explore the motivations, communication preferences, and giving behaviors of different generations, equipping lay leaders with the tools to build meaningful relationships across age groups. Bonus: We’ll uncover the secrets to effectively fundraising from each generation!
