If nonprofits want to stay competitive, tap into new geographic markets, and scale their impact, they must adopt a more tech-enabled approach to outreach and engagement. Unfortunately, despite being aware of the growing need to embrace tech and look to the future, many nonprofit leaders are unsure about how to get started. SaverLife hosts this webinar to help nonprofit leaders think through how they can leverage technology to increase reach and engagement. Attendees can expect to hear from leading industry experts like Leigh Phillips and Neha Gupta from SaverLife, Jenny Flores from the Wells Fargo Foundation, and Samir Goel from Esusu. yt:video:vA7zHnYNsNQ vA7zHnYNsNQ UC4toTlk0OLqUzHEhaLXtG_A SaverLife https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4toTlk0OLqUzHEhaLXtG_A 2024-03-07T18:31:15+00:00 2026-04-13T16:55:40+00:00 From the front line: Navigating the downpour of chronic climate expenses for LMI households Climate change, like financial health, seeps into all areas of daily life and has ripple effects. But it's impacts aren't just felt immediately after a severe weather or a disaster. Climate change poses chronic challenges to people living on low-to-moderate incomes who are looking to prepare for weather events and still take steps toward their financial health goals. This webinar discusses the importance of amplifying the voices and perspectives of people living on low-to-moderate incomes to ensure that climate-related efforts, products, and services always reflect their financial priorities and pain points. It also investigates ways that leaders in the financial health space, and across industries, can elevate the stories of people living on low-to-moderate incomes in their own work. In this way, preparing for and dealing with climate change can become an inclusive and cross-sector effort that ensures all people can protect themselves, their families, and their homes — without impacting their financial health. yt:video:E3lZB6Tq4VI E3lZB6Tq4VI UC4toTlk0OLqUzHEhaLXtG_A SaverLife https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4toTlk0OLqUzHEhaLXtG_A 2023-09-25T15:56:03+00:00 2026-05-21T18:11:22+00:00 SaverLife Member Story: Meet Cheranda Hear about Cheranda's savings journey with SaverLife
