[Alain Berranger <alain.berranger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Angie,

It was nice connecting today and I'm thrilled that you are accepting this
invitation.

Below I have updated the session description to take into account most
recent developments, including your acceptance. This remains a draft and we
have until June 4th to finalize this outline for further dissemination.

*Session Title: "The impact of the internet and e-Fundraising on
Notforprofits and NGOs"*
*
*
*Overview: The amount of donations raised on line is still relatively small
but is the fastest growing segment of philanthropy. Notforprofits and
Non-governmental Organizations must develop new mindsets, master new
technologies and acquire new competencies and skills to tap these new
sources of charitable giving. While traditional donors often make their
decisions based on cause and administrative efficiency, a new breed of
social investors are looking for outcomes, impact and returns. A
multi-disciplinary panel of experts and practitionners will scan the
evolving e-Fundraising scene and share their experience on the subject.*
