By Stuart Buck & Anna Harvey. We don’t mean the former Facebook. Rather, philanthropies should prefer to fund meta-issues—i.e., research and evaluation, along with efforts to improve research quality. In many cases, it would be far more impactful than what they are doing now. This is true at two levels. First, suppose you want to support a certain cause–economic development in Africa, or criminal justice reform in the US, etc.

Unfortunately, social sector data has also been impacted. Staff working long hours responding to multiple crises have little time and energy for data collection and dissemination.

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.

By Funders for Housing and Opportunity. Supporting Solutions to the Housing Crisis. By Charles Rutheiser, Annie E. Casey Foundation. Housing is much more than a roof over one’s head. Having a place to call home is a basic human need—a place of safety, stability, support, and belonging.

Remember, in a down economy, recurring gifts may be the best way for donors to continue their support as they can afford smaller gifts. Donors want to continue to help. The more you do to let them know this is an option, the more donors will consider it.
