Trust and interconnectivity in Canadian fundraising

Global Philanthropic Canada Episode 5

What makes philanthropy tick in the Canadian landscape? How do we collectively squeeze the most juice out of associations and memberships to elevate your non-profit's mission and your fundraising career? What does it mean to be a fundraising generalist?

In this episode, we dive in to discuss fundraising in Canada from the perspective of Lisa Dayanandan, CFRE. Lisa is a self-described storyteller, connector and big picture thinker. A former teacher, she found her way into fundraising and never looked back. Currently, she works as Philanthropy Advisor with the Edmonton Community Foundation while also volunteering with AFP Edmonton and Area Chapter and the Canadian Association of Gift Planners.

This episode is hosted by Corrie Fortner. If Lisa is a storyteller, connector and big picture thinker, Corrie is an empath, problem-solver extraordinaire and a visionary leader. She is a compassionate and strategic fund development professional with a strong history of success working with donors, leading teams, and supporting organizations to attain and surpass their goals. She currently works with Global Philanthropic Canada as Vice President, Prairies & Territories and Senior Consultant for many Canadian non-profits.
