Levey The $557.2 billion U.S. donors gave to nonprofits during 2023, according to data from Giving USA, is a high-water mark in terms of current dollars, and the amount exceeds pre-COVID-19 pandemic-giving, which peaked during 2019.

I’m going to show you a paragraph from a direct mail appeal that directly harms the effectiveness of the piece it’s in. You might say, I see paragraphs like that in fundraising constantly!

But this paragraph — and its thousands of cousins that litter fundraising messages everywhere — is not really fundraising.

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.

The world of work has fundamentally changed. The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best.
