Organizations need to adapt quickly to survive, and a long-term plan often becomes a liability and burden rather than a guide and roadmap. Instead, a one-year nonprofit strategic plan, monitored monthly and updated annually, proves to be a far more effective and cost-efficient approach to planning.

There are a couple subtle shadings of utilize that are slightly different. But you’re not likely to need those in fundraising. And most readers are not aware of those things. The long word is just a needless long word.
