Our very own Rob van der End and Nick Dubé will be presenting at the F&P Fundraising Forum this month!

Held in Melbourne 26-28 August, this conference covers everything to do with Individual Giving.

We are presenting a masterclass on "how to create compelling donor journeys", and we'll deep dive into implementing donor journeys that are personal, scalable, and fully integrated with your digital systems.

Registration for the masterclass (Tuesday 26 August) is separate from the general conference (Wednesday 27 - Thursday 28), but we'll be there for the whole thing! We'd encourage you to join us - tickets are still available: https://fandp.eventsair.com/2025-fundraising-forum/

We're looking forward to the CMA Conference next week in Brisbane! Our very own Rob van der End and Nick Dubé will be co-presenting a session on "Connection to Impact: Maximising Your CRM to Strengthen Donor Relationships". It will be an insightful workshop on enhancing donor relationships through modern CRM technology.

There will be so many great speakers on this year's "Collaborate" theme, and an unprecedented number of faith-based nonprofits represented. In fact this year is the biggest CMA Conference ever with over 500 delegates already registered!

To celebrate, CMA have provided us with a promo code to receive $150 off the registration fee. If you would like to snap up a last minute ticket, please comment or DM and we'll send the code.

We are thrilled to be 2025 Australian Web Awards finalists!! The PeaceWise App featured in the Mobile App category this year, and it was wonderful to celebrate at the glitzy ceremony in Melbourne. 🎉🥂

Mark Hawrylak and Nick Dubé from the Heartburst team were joined by Bruce Burgess, PeaceWise Founding Director to mark the occasion. Bruce's passion for equipping people to navigate conflict and find peace in their relationships is contagious, and we look forward to seeing PeaceWise grow in the coming years.

The PeaceWise App features an innovative gamification model that encourages users to progress in their peacemaking journey while earning olive leaves, olive branches, and even growing an olive tree. 🕊️
