ICAA Spring Workshop Recap
ICAA hosted its Spring Workshop: What Do We Value? Confronting Difficult Situations in Advancement at Wittenberg University on March 24th. More than 50 guests attended this in-person opportunity to talk about how to have important conversations with donors and alumni even though the topics may be uncomfortable. We thank our panelists, moderators and keynote speaker for a day spent reflecting on such topics. We look forward to continuing the conversation with workshops at the Summer Conference.
Thank you to all who attended!
