Virtual Poker Night at the 2025 NIO Summit: Fundraising of the Future
This week, Virtual Poker Night is proud to sponsor the NIO Summit in Kansas City, hosted by our friends at NextAfter. The Summit is all about innovation in nonprofit fundraising while finding new ways to connect with supporters and strengthen the missions that make a difference. It’s a natural fit for us, because that’s exactly what we’re passionate about too.
Where Poker Meets Purpose
Over the past few years, Virtual Poker Night has helped hundreds of nonprofits raise millions of dollars for their beneficiaries and causes. What we’ve learned is simple: fundraising can be fun, social and deeply impactful all at once…even virtually.
Poker brings people together. It sparks conversation, builds camaraderie and creates memories. When that energy is tied to a mission, it transforms into something powerful. Supporters feel more connected and organizations raise more to fuel their work. To us, that feels like the fundraising of the future, built on timeless human connection.
Why We’re Here
Our goal at NIO Summit is to meet and learn from the nonprofit leaders who are shaping the next chapter of fundraising, while also exploring how we might collaborate with the marketing and technology companies that guide and support them every day. Together, we can keep pushing fundraising forward in ways that benefit organizations of every size.
Something Special for NIO Attendees
We’re also excited to share a little friendly competition. On the final day of the Summit, we’re hosting a special NIO Poker Tournament. The best part? The winner’s organization will receive a complimentary Virtual Poker Night event!
Looking Ahead
Fundraising is always evolving, but at its core, it’s about people coming together for something bigger than themselves. At Virtual Poker Night, we’re grateful to play even a small role in helping nonprofits raise the resources they need while creating experiences their supporters won’t forget.
