Get Fully Funded
MARCH 6, 2023
A very common “go-to” funding idea for small nonprofits is fundraising events. Events are a great way to bring like-minded people together and have a good time in the name of your cause. Some fundraising events are huge, drawing attendees and sponsors like moths to a flame. Other events are smaller, more intimate gatherings where guests are directly asked for money.

If you have difficulty saying No to your supervisor or colleagues as a nonprofit communicator, you are not alone. Three-quarters (74% of survey participants for the 2023 Nonprofit Communications Trends Report ) said it was difficult or very difficult to say No to their supervisors when they make a work request. It’s only slightly easier to say No to work requests from colleagues in other departments, with 65% saying it was difficult or very difficult.

A nonprofit organization hires a talented professional. This person is valued by their peers and supervisors. They consistently meet or exceed job expectations. They are one of the most talented team members to come through the organization in the past few years. Naturally, they are promoted into a management role. There’s just one problem, they’ve never managed others or received formal management or leadership training to prepare them for this new opportunity.

Are you ready to try some new email list building tactics at your nonprofit? Every year, you lose subscribers due to emails bouncing, addresses becoming undeliverable, or subscribers opting out. That means if you don’t invest some effort into building your nonprofit’s email list, it will shrink over time. According to the 2023 Nonprofit Communications Trends Report , nonprofits still have plenty of ways to build their email lists.

Do you think its better to keep the originating of campaigns “in-house” or outsourced to experts? This could mean that resident staff are free to maintain their portfolios and look after donors, or conversely, it could mean that staff have less buy-in, and subsequently it reduces commitment and engagement. I’d appreciate your thoughts on this.
Speaker: Radhika Samant and Todd Wuestenberg
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.

In reply to Trudy Smith. HiTrudy – I’m not quite sure I understand the question, but I think you’ve answered your own question if I’m understanding correctly. Are you asking about the potential value in outsourcing a campaign, including donor relationships (clearly a bad idea)? I believe you’ve provided two key examples of why it should be kept in-house, including keeping relationships in-house as well as increasing staff commitment and engagement.

It’s spring here in the Northern Hemisphere, although in the Boston area spring doesn’t fully kick in until May. A lot of people use this time of the year to do some spring cleaning. I know, groan. I envy the people who do that because usually I’m not one of them. I know I should do more. As much as I dislike cleaning and organizing, I’m happy once it gets done.

Are you still sending all your donors the same appeal and thank you letters? In these letters, you never thank a donor for their past support or acknowledge they’re a monthly donor. If that’s not bad enough, many of these letters use vague and impersonal language and even worse, jargon. Since the pandemic started, some nonprofits have done better and have created more nuanced, personal communication.

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. The truth is that engagement and enablement is more important than ever, but how we do it is the critical differentiator for many organizations.
