From Reactive to Visionary: The Strategy Shift That Transforms Fundraising
Wednesday, April 22, 2026, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM EDT
Category: Programs
Strategic planning might not be your favorite part of the job — but it might be your greatest fundraising advantage. 
 
Join us for an upcoming AFP Maryland roundtable, From Reactive to Visionary: The Strategy Shift That Transforms Fundraising. 
 
Wednesday, April 22, 2026
12PM - 1PM [Virtual via Zoom]
 
This session is generously sponsored by Spark Point Fundraising and Quinn Strategy Group. Led by Whitney Brimfield (Spark Point Fundraising) and Ann Quinn (Quinn Strategy Group), this session will share insights on fundraising strategy and organizational planning with a focus on why development leaders must play a central role in shaping strategy—not just executing it.

Because here’s the reality:

Fundraising without strategy is like selling something that doesn’t exist yet.

When you’re part of building the plan, everything changes:

*Your case for support becomes clearer
*Your goals become more achievable
*Your conversations with leadership become more strategic

During this session, you’ll explore:

*Why strategy is a fundraising advantage (not a burden)
*How to move from reactive fundraising to proactive planning
*What to ask for when your organization enters strategic planning
*How to position yourself as an essential strategic partner

Whether your organization is actively planning or overdue for it, you’ll leave with practical tools and the confidence to advocate for your role in shaping the future.

Register today and take your seat at the strategy table!

*This session is pending CFRE credit approval.
