If you’re like so many other nonprofit professionals, you’re likely deep into end-of-year planning. These last few months of the year are a time of incredible opportunity, but those opportunities can bring with them some pretty intense pressure. So when we mention another conference, it can sound like yet one more thing to add to your to-do list.
But hear us out: Generosity Xchange 2025 will actually help you cut through the end-of-year noise. It’s a free, virtual, two-day event designed to give you actionable, practical strategies. It’ll also explore how technology and human connection can work together to fuel your mission.
With over 30 sessions and 40 speakers covering topics for nonprofit professionals in any role, there will be a lot to take in! We know your time is precious, so we went straight to the source for some personalized recs.
I asked my Neon One team—the product managers, the customer success pros, and content creators who love all things nonprofit technology—to share the sessions they think will deliver big impact and inspiration. (Plus, we also snagged some insights from a few of this year’s speakers!)
