Join Funraise and Liminal in curating impactful connections between nonprofit executives.

The goal of Funraise Connects is to bring nonprofit leaders and founders together in a relaxed setting to break bread while we network, share ideas, and learn from our peers.

Funraise Connects Orange County will be hosted by Funraise CEO Justin Wheeler and joined by special guest Todd Hiestand of Liminal.

Todd Hiestand is the co-owner of Liminal and the author of The Welcoming Nonprofit, a book on hospitality-centered donor engagement. With over two decades of nonprofit leadership, Todd has spent his career exploring how nonprofits build trust and belonging with the people they serve and the people who support them. At Liminal, Todd works with nonprofits and social impact organizations on brand strategy, storytelling, and fundraising.

Dinner will be followed by a roundtable discussion with Todd and Justin.

The cost of the evening will be covered by Funraise and Liminal. Space will be limited, so if you would like to attend this complimentary dinner (and open bar!), please register as soon as possible.
