July session -- Data Storytelling: How to Use Data to Tell Your Impact Story

  • Tuesday, July 15 -- 12 - 1 p.m. ET
  • Using data, and illustrating it in a compelling way, is a critical component of your fundraising and external relations work. Effectively presenting your impact is an ideal approach for motivating funders and generating new relationships with partners and peer organizations – and it’s a cycle that can build on itself and facilitate even greater impact! In this session, Graciela Kahn, Director, Business Intelligence at NeighborWorks, will cover strategies that focus on moving past data collection and towards data presentation to help your organization share its story in the most persuasive way possible. If you joined us for our February 2025 Learning Express session, "Data Storytelling: Where to Find Data to Tell Your Impact Story," this is a great follow-up to complete the story. If you’re new to this topic, you’ll definitely walk away with additional techniques to propel your work.
