Live@5 The Next Gen in Philanthropy
The last few years haven’t been easy for many nonprofits. And a recession now looms. But according to Joanne Gonzalez-Forster, “hundreds of nonprofits have discovered that younger givers – the next gen of philanthropists. -- are giving millions of dollars on apps, in monthly subscription-based fundraising and through cause-related connections to the brands they love or the brands they work for. Mobile giving by smart phone has increased 205 percent in the last year.” Gonzalez-Forster shares her knowledge and expertise with Mark Billings, CEO of Mosiac Consulting and Niki Chopra Richardson, Associate Director of TOArts. Live@5 airs on the third Tuesday of each month from 5-6 PM Pacific Time and can be viewed on YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.
Live@5 ESG, the SEC, and THEE
Live@5 features a livestreamed roundtable on ESG – Environmental, Social, and (Corporate) Governance – and new SEC rules on how companies manage and report their ESG compliance. Did you know that Dun & Bradstreet now tracks your ESG rating and compares it to an industry standard, right on your D&B listing? The discussion is led by Jim Tyson, Senior Reporter for CFO Dive, and Laura Moreno Lucas, Partner at LAT VC, a venture capital firm investing in Latino-led businesses. Participants include Brent Baldwin, Senior Counsel, Legal & Regulatory Affairs, Direct Relief, one of the world’s largest NGOs, and Paige Kuroyama, a Partner in CNM’s Los Angeles office where she leads CNM’s Technical Accounting Group. Paige has over 20 years of public accounting and auditing experience, and is considered one of CNM’s top experts on ESG. On its website Nasdaq says, “ESG data has increasingly become an important resource for investors seeking performance indicators, but also for public companies trying to increase operational efficiency, decrease resource dependency, and attract new customers and employees.” ESG is top of mind – or soon will be – with CEOs, CFOs, and CPO/CHROs. Live@5 airs on the third Tuesday of each month from 5-6 PM Pacific Time and can be viewed on YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.
Live@5 The Great Non-Profit Talent Search
Finding talent to lead nonprofit organizations has always been challenging. During the pandemic many nonprofits saw key personnel leave for higher paying corporate jobs. Others left as part of the “great resignation” or to take care of children or other family members. But on the flip side, some nonprofits are finding top talent who have left the corporate world in search of more meaningful, purpose driven work. On our May Live@5 we’ll talk with nonprofit leaders on how they’re handling their recruiting. Jay Berger, partner at Morris & Berger, talks with several nonprofit leaders including: Vanessa Bechtel, President & CEO of the Ventura County Community Foundation Regina Birdsell, President and CEO, Center for Nonprofit Management Christine Essel, President and CEO, Southern California Grantmakers Dr. Va Lecia Adams Kellum, President & CEO, St. Joseph Center, one of LA County’s largest homeless services providers.
