New Strategies Symposium

Lancaster Lebanon Habitat and our executive director, Andrew Szalay, are honored to be funded by Thrivent Financial to virtually participate in New Strategies, an advanced online training program conducted over four consecutive Tuesdays from September 15 – October 6 by Georgetown University’s Business for Impact. Andrew will join a class of 38 nonprofit executives from around the country to participate in New Strategies’ Symposium specifically designed to help nonprofits increase and diversify their revenue streams.

Executives will learn from leaders in the nonprofit and philanthropy fields, Georgetown business school faculty and each other on topics ranging from cause marketing, earned revenue, using predictive analytics to increase individual giving levels, deferred and major gift funding options, virtual fund raising, alliances and mergers and more. Ongoing access to the expert speakers and networking among the nonprofit executives is a hallmark of New Strategies.

“I’m excited to participate and explore the ways Habitat can advance our mission,” said Andrew. “We’re grateful to Thrivent Financial, which is enabling us to plan for the future and put what we learn into action.”

There is no application to apply to New Strategies, so being named by Thrivent is itself an honor. Only those nonprofits funded by a corporation or foundation are invited to participate in the program and only after being approved by New Strategies.
