Engaging Millennials to Raise Big Money with Alyssa Wright

Nonprofit Nation with Julia Campbell

Pretty much every stereotype you have read about Millennials is false. Many are skilled, up-and-coming professionals in their 30's & 40's with deeper pockets and vaster networks than you might think. Plus, they are the inheritors of $42 trillion by 2030.

In this episode, get to know the Millennial generation, understand what inspires and motivates them to get involved in mission making, and start to ensure effective inter-generational collaboration at your organization with Alyssa Wright.

Having spent time as a human rights activist in Eastern Europe and Africa, Alyssa brings over a decade of experience in international philanthropy to Wright Collective. With a background in community organizing and the arts, Alyssa leads the Collective with skill, creativity, and passion. As an accomplished facilitator, consultant, and coach, she builds new revenue streams, shifts cultural perspectives, and inspires people to believe that change is possible no matter what.

She has helped hundreds of both domestic and global social change organizations successfully launch major gifts programs, capital campaigns, and create sustainable funding models resulting in over $60,000,000 of resource flow. Her experience and wit has also allowed her to become a sought-after speaker on philanthropy and fund development as well as a regular contributor to ForbesWomen, Global Giving, and Network for Good. Alyssa is a powerful Millennial voice in the social change movement.
