Is there ever grounds to uninvite someone to your event? If so, we know how NOT to handle it.
There may be some legitimate reasons to uninvite someone to an event, but in this episode we dive into what NOT to do. This story has us asking serious questions about the fundraising profession + how we treat those who leave our organizations but still have a passion for our mission.
👊 Punchline: Be kind and generous no matter what situation presents itself.
