This has created challenges, but also opportunities to reimagine how constituents want to engage, and use these learnings to fuel long-term strategies. Rather than falling back on "traditional" ways of engagement, we can evolve our technology and strategies to create a giving experience for supporters and work experience for fundraisers that is more agile and innovative. Join us for a webinar for tips on building agile End-of-Year strategies that scale and engage supporters in more personalized and meaningful ways.

With the donor data you’ve collected over the years, it’s possible to shift your focus from scattershot acquisition to targeted donor cultivation for more accessible, effective, and sustainable fundraising.

Board members are some of the greatest assets to a nonprofit’s fundraising efforts. They play a crucial role in generating momentum around your vision by engaging prospective donors, leading peer-to-peer solicitations, and making generous financial commitments of their own. These activities are essential for smaller development teams with a robust pipeline, limited time, and competing for institutional priorities.
