Are you missing out on donations from the next generation of donors simply because your nonprofit isn’t equipped to accept cryptocurrency or appeal to tech-savvy millennials? In episode 293 of Your Path to Nonprofit Leadership, we unlock new opportunities in fundraising with Pat Duffy. He shares how nonprofits can integrate crypto donations seamlessly and unlock the potential of millennial and Gen Z donors. Learn why cryptocurrency is more than a buzzword—it’s a highly tax-efficient giving method that aligns with the preferences of younger, tech-savvy philanthropists.
