The Development Leadership Consortium sponsors a biennial philanthropy forecast that is widely attended by Chicagoland professionals. The event brings together a panel of experts in philanthropy, economics, and fundraising to discuss trends that will shape our industry in the near future.
This year, the Development Leadership Consortium hosted the 2011 Philanthropy Forecast: Measurement or Myth: Accountability in Fundraising on Friday October 21st at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Jamie Phillippe, Vice President for Development and Donor Services at the Chicago Community Trust moderated a dialogue between Jason Saul, CEO of Mission Measurement and Adele Simmons, Ph.D., Vice-Chair and Senior Executive at Metropolis Strategies. The discussion explored the various benefits and potential drawbacks of outcome-based assessment.
The event was generously supported by our presenting sponsor, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and Friends of the Forecast Ter Molen, Watkins & Brandt LLC and The Lloyd A. Fry Foundation.
