Survey: Advancement offices and fundraising continue remote models with unpredictable return to in-person events

In August, more advancement offices have reopened for in-person work (20%), though 30% of offices are not planning to reopen until early 2021. No offices report currently conducting in-person events of more than 10 people. Eleven percent (11%) of offices are currently conducting in-person events limited to 10 people, while 43% of offices still don’t know when they’ll conduct smaller in-person events.

The 30-, 60-, and 90-day high negative impact remains stable at 41% or lower this month.
