Tales From the Trenches Tuesdays: Episode 84

February 24, 2025

Episode 84

Episode 84 of Tales From the Trenches Tuesdays again features Brieanna Quinn, a fundraising professional with over 20 years of experience, raising record-setting donations at higher education institutions and national nonprofits. She brings an innovative and collaborative approach where meaningful change is possible.  In addition, Brieanna understands that developing thoughtful relationships takes time and approaches each encounter thoughtfully to ensure solid and lasting relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

In this episode, we discuss things she has learned from donors, as well as philanthropy in her house when growing up. We end with her thoughts on the future of philanthropy.

My concern is that all the big gifts with lots of zeroes are turning donor who give $5,000 or $1,000 away — “So you don’t need my gift, you just received this $20 million gift.” So I hope there is a change on how we communicate the need and how we communicate the outcomes.
