Thursday, August 10th, MBN was on the road and joined a gathering to hear a status report on Giving USA. This occurred at Eagle Eye Golf Club, in Bath Township, just north of East Lansing. Watch Melissa Brown's presentation and responses to active Q&A during the session in the pair of YouTube videos shared below:

Clark Schaefer Hackett hosted a presentation of the annual Giving USA report, featuring speaker Melissa S. Brown, Principal of Melissa S. Brown & Associates, LLC. The report is a valuable nationwide resource with benchmarking information for trustees, philanthropists, financial advisors, giving officers, nonprofit leaders, executive directors, and fundraising professionals. 

Melissa S. Brown wrote and edited the Giving USA report for 10 years as the Associate Director of Research of the now IU Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. Her firsthand experience with the report and extensive fundraising background allow her to provide insightful perspectives on the 2022 philanthropic giving trends that can aid your local not-for-profits to success!

The presentation and networking event occurred on August 10, 2023, from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. at Eagle Eye Golf Club.
