https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Dan says: We need to let people have the option to give. Giving has benefits to the donor, so we shouldn&
#39;t deprive them

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Are you asking your audiences to donate their ticket to your organisation instead of asking for refund?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Dana: Before COVID my relationships with donors were over email anyway - are we overthinking this digital stewardship?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Samir: It&
#39;s also cheaper to host a Zoom event than a donor event with drinks/venue etc

What is your experience?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Katherine: The crisis had hit us hard as we were just building our Donor base. We are providing a way to channel good will.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Big elephant in the room: guilt of asking for money. Where does your organisation stand on it?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🗣" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Emily: We need to be blunt and honest because the government isn’t. people find the truth refreshing

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Sarah: We are getting a lot of lovely stories about our venue being important to them. We ask them if we can use it in our comms and they are very enthusiastic about it.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź—Ł" title="Speaking head in silhouette" aria-label="Emoji: Speaking head in silhouette"> Dan: Transactional donation is not happening at the moment. Converting value of a ticket into a donation can be empowering to audience members.
