OUR STORY
it all started with a magnolia...
In 2023, a group of professionals from diverse backgrounds and experiences came together in a Slack channel with the sole purpose of planning an annual regional industry conference.
After working together and recognizing each other’s passion for donor relations, we created The DRX Collab, a space where our skills, knowledge and talents offer innovative solutions, ideas and networking opportunities for our peers in the non-profit space. We are donor relations and donor experience collaborators from higher education, healthcare and community grassroots organizations.
DEDICATION. EXPERTISE.
Passion
As a dedicated team of volunteers, we are united by our passion for this industry. Our individual knowledge and expertise in various aspects of donor relations and engagement truly drive our effectiveness. We are committed to leveraging our strengths to foster meaningful relationships among our peers, our donors and our community.
