My latest blog post is up! Nonprofits everywhere - Funders, donors, as well as proposal and application reviewers want to know what makes you special. Make sure you can communicate how your approach or strategies make you distinct from - not necessarily better than - other organizations working in your community! #newblogpost #philanthropy #donors #funders #nonprofits

Heading into 2024, it's crucial to reflect on the impact of our year-end giving initiatives through a lens of strategic evaluation. As Lee Hutter from Curated Wealth Partners and I discuss in this video, #KeyPerformanceIndicators (KPIs) and robust measurement tools serve as invaluable guides in assessing the success of our philanthropic endeavors. By setting clear objectives and quantifiable goals, we can gauge not just the amount of funds donated, but also the tangible outcomes and lasting effects of our contributions. Whether it's the number of lives touched, communities uplifted, or specific milestones achieved, a data-driven approach allows us to refine our strategies, amplify positive results, and ultimately enhance the efficacy of our year-end giving. #PhilanthropyMetrics #YearEndGiving #ImpactEvaluation #BetterDataBetterWorld

Tomorrow is the big day! 🙏🏼 The release of the inaugural DAF Fundraising Report marks a new chapter in Philanthropy 📖 One where nonprofit fundraisers don’t need to sit and wonder: “there’s billions of dollars heading towards DAFs, but is it really helping our missions?” 🤔 For a decade, everyone has pointed to DAF disclosed data as evidence of increased DAF giving 📈 Which is absolutely helpful, but not the full picture 🖼️ What are nonprofits actually seeing on the other end? 👀 How much more DAF support are they actually receiving? 💰 And how do DAF donors compare with the rest of their donor file? 😶🌫️ And what happens when a specific supporter changes how they support - and starts giving from a DAF? 🎁 It’s an exciting time for fundraisers to be able to own the narrative on DAFs for their organization - and have a broad-based, data informed view to share 🗣️ Be a part of the first-ever presentation of this groundbreaking analysis tomorrow (tues July 23) at Noon EST - link to register below 💙 There will be plenty of time for Q&A - and yes, there will be a recording available for anyone that registers in advance ☺️ See y’all there! #fundraising #philanthropy #nonprofit

Check your calendars, this is going to be a good one! Register now for our next FREE Alliance Monthly Webinar coming up one week from today, Thursday, September 14 from 9-10a! Topic: Giving Big, Unrestricted Gifts for Nonprofits MacKenzie Scott’s giving has shaken up the philanthropic landscape. Her gifts are, at the median, 80 times the size of the typical grant of staffed foundations. They are totally unrestricted, often totally unexpected, and reveal a clear focus on equity and justice. Many observers have noted that Scott’s approach is the most interesting natural experiment in philanthropic practice in recent memory — raising many questions: What is the experience of organizations that receive these gifts? How do they use the resources? Are there unintended consequences? Are other donors, individuals or foundations, emulating Scott’s approach? During this webinar, our presenter Elisha Smith Arrillage, PhD will explore these and other questions based on findings from the second year of CEP’s three-year research effort to examine the effects of Scott’s giving. Elisha will also offer an exclusive preview of findings that will be released in late 2023 as well as engage in a lively debate about the implications of Scott’s approach. #alliancewebinar #nonprofit #nonprofitsector #nonprofitorganization #philanthropy #philanthropymatters #nonprofitgiving #philanthropicefforts #alliancems #nonprofitdonors #nonprofitsupport #freewebinar
