Words of wisdom from nonprofit experts

Grow from our extensive fundraising experience

You’re in good company. We’ve got decades of experience and hundreds of fundraising campaigns under our belt. Learn from nonprofit experts on how to have successful Giving Tuesday and end of year campaigns.

  • Effective storytelling is the key to connecting with potential donors

    Never underestimate the power of great storytelling. Surround your impact reporting with compelling narratives, photos, videos, and testimonials to create an emotional connection with potential donors.

    Jess Forrester, Chief Revenue Officer

  • Consider how Giving Tuesday fits in your end of year appeal.

    Will Giving Tuesday be the kickoff for your end of year giving or completely separate? Consider your target audience that’s most likely to give online, and if/ how that’s different than your end of year donors who typically donate via snail mail.

    Rachel Costa, Senior Philanthropic Partnerships Manager

  • Make donating as frictionless as possible

    Even inspired potential donors need an easy path to contribute. Make sure it is clear how to donate on your social media, through the emails you send, and on your website. Donors will drop off if they need to search too hard or go multiple layers deep to donate.

    Rustin Nethercott, Senior Growth Marketing Manager

  • Giving Tuesday and end of year goals don't have to be financial.

    This is an opportunity for all nonprofits.

    Your goals can focus on increasing followers, organizing volunteers, getting in-kind donations, signatures on a petition, shares on a post or story, or some other goal that's connected to your mission.

    Sarah Angello, Head of Operations
