It’s not simply a matter of whether your nonprofit is making money or not. Are you meeting end goals and fulfilling the vision of your mission? How do you know you are taking the right steps towards actual mission success? Without a strategic plan, it can be extremely challenging to answer these questions. To help you get started, we’ve broken down the main components of strategic planning below. ✔️ Clarify Your Mission: Revisit your mission statement to make sure it’s clear and inspiring. A strong mission unites your team around shared goals. ✔️ Assess Your Situation: Conduct a SWOT analysis to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Understanding your current situation is crucial for effective planning. ✔️ Set SMART Goals: Define specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals. ✔️ Develop an Action Plan: Outline specific actions, resources, and timelines. Assign responsibilities to create accountability within your team. ✔️ Monitor and Adjust: Implement your plan and evaluate progress using performance metrics regularly. Be prepared to adapt as needed! Armed with the above knowledge and the drive to follow through, you and your nonprofit are on the path to achieving your nonprofit's mission and creating a substantial impact in the world. #nonprofit #strategicplan #strategy #fundraising #growth #goals #mission

Greater capacity = probable major donor, right? It’s easy to think that wealthy individuals are more likely to become #majordonors.
