I just finished reading the 2008 donorCentrics Internet Giving Benchmarks Analysis , put out by Blackbaud company Target Analytics. By many measures, online fundraising had a red letter year in 2008: Online donors are younger and have higher incomes than traditional, primarily direct mail donors. Get the report and read it.

The data were collected in the summer of 2009 by asking people to reflect on their volunteering during all of 2008. On one of the pages, amid all the charts on who volunteers and what they do, is a big banner depicting the following result: "33 percent of Arizona adults volunteered in 2008." One in three. But is it right? One in four.

Since this brought dogfighting into the spotlight and put it on the minds of many Americans, we figured it was a good time to reach out to people. Of course, we had no budget for this. The only cost, as with many social campaigns, was staff time. What sort of statistics can you share with us about the competition?

Nonprofit organizations are vital to the nation’s economic well-being and have nearly doubled in the last 30 years (National Center for Charitable Statistics, 2015). It may be time to rethink how these important social organizations are funded. Charitable endowments sank to an all-time low and were unavailable to start nonprofits.

In January, Cristi was named one of the 21 Leaders of the 21st Century for 2008 by Women's eNews. Britt Bravo: Why is it important to have women citizen journalists in developing countries at this time? But at the same time, I realized a lot of the limitations that the mainstream model of foreign correspondence often provides.

I first saw Scratch a few years ago, when I had friends working at the Media Lab, and at the time it seemed like a neat way for kids who were unfamiliar with programming to jump in and start designing their own interactive stories and games. There are four sections to this post: An overview of ScratchR user types and related statistics.

"I think that people have long associated feminism with older white women and the idea of bringing that back to women of color, and bringing it back to young women of color and asking them what it means is an exciting time for me." In particular, it is important to think about what young women need to be thinking about in this moment of time.

We’re going to save some time at the end for Q&A, and like Kishshana said a minute ago, we’d love to hear from you. And I don’t know how she has time for all this stuff. Steven: All the time. My first time in really understanding what that meant was in 2008. So use the chat, the Q&A.

According to our fundraising statistics , 75% of young donors are turned off by out-of-date websites (not being mobile responsive is an outdated website red flag) and mobile-responsive donation pages yield 34% more donations. Because giving days are limited in time, they do a good job at incentivizing your supporters to give.

For example, in April 2007 I wrote 52 posts, but in April 2008 I wrote 61. So, if you are just starting up, pick a frequency that you can sustain over time. Calculating benchmarks should not take you more time than it is worth. So I'm not spending time to generate god's spreadsheet of monthly number of posts and words per post.

It not only surpassed our expectations in regard to the three driving forces behind the change (less paper, less work, more tech), but it also didn't disappoint in perhaps the most important statistic for evaluation methods: the number of evaluations completed. Fortunately, we still have a lot of time to figure everything out this year.

Race is a remarkably social exhibit; visitors spend a lot of time pointing things out to each other and talking about them. In many cases people were pointing at things that were simple in design and form--quotes, statistics, facts and figures. Pointing is a social behavior that works best in physically proximate, real-time situations.
