Meet Cameron. This digital marketer and fundraiser helps hundreds of charities fundraise more by creating journeys that guide donors from their first interaction to becoming lifelong advocates. And the answer isn't a complicated one. It's threaded through an intentional donor journey. Cameron believes too many people neglect the power of capturing an email and using it the right way to build this journey. So he's helping us map one out to get started. His personal story of philanthropy is reason enough to tune in 🎧
