Testimonials about the ISPD
Summer Development School

I’ve been in this field for over 25 years, but I learn something new every time I come to this conference. We need to stay relevant for our constituents.

This conference has given me the confidence to go back and start an Annual Fund for my school. With all the tools I’ve learned, I can now put a plan together.

Normally, these types of conferences are geared towards high school, and you have to pick apart what applies to elementary schools. ISPD does a great job of showing how to apply advancement at the elementary level, too.

Every child who has a desire for a Catholic education should be able to receive it. It is our job in development to make sure those students don’t miss out.
