    Dear All:

    I am trying to gather speakers to talk/do webinars. I was wondering what would be topics of interest that the group would be interested in hearing about. And if there a topic of interest that you might want to speak about. Please share...

    I am a nonprofit fractional CFO as well as having served on numerous nonprofit boards.  The topics I see most nonprofits struggle with are:

    1. Revenue recognition for multi-year pledges
    2. Restricted contributions and releases from restriction

    I am an assistant controller and financial analyst for a non-profit private university.

    AI applications ranging from workflow automation to long term planning are being implemented or discussed. How are non-profits using AI now and what is expected for the immediate future?

    Hi my Dear Rinku,

    Love to intersect here. You and your team are doing great work!!!

    I'll throw down some ideas: 

    • "Not for profit funding options" — syndications, investment pooling, grants, local and state-based programs, tax incentives, so on . . .
    • Employee hiring, volunteer engagement, not for profit perks, and cutting-edge benefits and / or packages that can make nonprofits more attractive.
    • Scaling and beyond growth — operations and reach.

    Just my 2 cents
