'Care About Donors the Same Way Whether They Donate or Not'

Those were the words from Seth "Yossi" Siegel, co-founder and partner of global investment banking boutique Sixpoint Partners: "Care about donors the same way whether they donate or not."

It was an impactful statement, one of many by Siegel during his keynote presentation last Wednesday at the DMA Nonprofit Federation's 2012 New York Nonprofit Conference. Siegel, an eloquent speaker and successful businessman, entrepreneur, lawyer, donor, nonprofit volunteer, activist and passionate lay fundraiser, may not seem like an obvious choice for a keynote at a fundraising conference, but it quickly became clear why he was chosen.
