All year, nonprofits seek out donations from donors and supporters through all kinds of campaigns.

Those funds allowed us to pay for the pre-prep for the wordless book that’s the centerpiece of The Born2Fly Project—illustrations, design work, professional scanning, and a lot more. So we didn’t raise $81,000, but what we got was even more valuable: an entirely new group of donors, many of whom have continued to give all year long.

Additionally, there is often a demand on advocacy’s return on investment (ROI) by nonprofit boards, donors, and CEOs. New donors. By asking advocate to donate in support of the issue or campaign that they just took action on, you’re isolating the potential donors that are most likely to take action. New advocates.

I think this is a common subconscious set of thoughts from donors. A typical match program will get a high-net-worth donor to conditionally pledge some money, say, $75,000. Often this is a nice way to up a gift from a major donor as well as getting your base excited. May we all be inscribed in the Book of Life.

What accounts for more donations in the nonprofit world: A) larger corporations or B) individual donors? In reality, it’s the complete opposite—over 80% of donations come from individual donors. Donors give for a variety of reasons, like a personal connection to an organization. If you answered A, you are not alone.

Most conversations about planned gifts don’t start with technical questions; rather, they center on donors’ wishes to have an impact on the organization’s needs. Return on Investment or “ROI”: This term is used by some organizations in place of the term “cost per dollar raised” and illustrates a similar concept.
