By properly collecting and analyzing data, these insights can be used to forecast donor behavior and even project fundraising revenue.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

While your mission is what drives your nonprofit, your relationships with donors are what sustain it. The work you do wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of your donors, so it’s vital that you work to build genuine relationships that inspire them to continue giving.
