Shape your charitable planning conversations with data-driven insights
Join CFNOVA for an exclusive advisor‑focused briefing that connects regional nonprofit trends, economic outlooks, and national policy shifts shaping charitable planning in 2026. This session will highlight key insights from CFNOVA’s latest regional nonprofit data, revealing how giving patterns, service demand, and community needs are evolving across Northern Virginia.
You’ll also hear a federal policy update from Jeff Hamond, representing the Community Foundation Awareness Initiative (CFAI)—a national initiative dedicated to advancing federal policies that strengthen community foundations and the philanthropic sector. Jeff will offer a forward‑looking view of the policy and regulatory developments likely to influence donor behavior, charitable vehicles, and philanthropic planning in the year ahead.
Adding essential regional perspective, Paul Misener will share insights on the innovation, business climate, and broader economic dynamics shaping Northern Virginia’s future, building on themes from the morning’s Shape of the Region Conference.
This discussion will provide advisors with a comprehensive understanding of the forces converging on philanthropy in 2026—grounded in data, informed by policy, and shaped by the region’s economic trajectory.
