Nonprofits, listen up! When transparency slips, trust takes a hit. 📉 Failing to be open with your donors not only risks damaging relationships but can also lead to decreased support and credibility. 💔 Donors want to know where their contributions are going and how they're making an impact. Let's prioritize transparency to build lasting trust and strengthen our mission together. 💼 . . . . . #marilynjeannedesigns #transparencymatters #buildtrust #donorrelations #donate #donated #donates #donateplease #donateinkind #donatetocharity #donatemoney

I spent some time this morning with a group of new fundraisers. There were so many great questions raised about how fundraising works, and what to say to donors. With many of the questions I ended up coming back to the same point. It's not about technique, it's about vision. It's not about how great your proposal is, it's about vision. It's not about what perks you can give your donor, it's about vision. When a fundraiser puts the donor's needs first, takes the time to learn their priorities and shares a compelling vision about change the donor cares about, that's when transformational gifts are made! Build the vision and everything else will follow. #fundraising #majorgifts #philanthropy #nonprofit

Do you know your donors? When was the last time they were communicated with or engaged with your organization? It is much costlier to acquire a new donor than it is to a retain an existing one. Make sure that your donors are being communicated with throughout the year, and not only when they are being asked to make a gift. Meeting with key supporters (donors and volunteers) is a good use of your time. Learn what motivated them to donate, what they find most satisfying about being a supporter, if they would like to be more involved, etc. Engaging with your donors and cultivating those relationships are some of the best things you can do to set you up for fundraising success. #nonprofit #fundraising #donors
