That’s why the holiday season is the busiest for nonprofits. With all those donations, though, nonprofits often forget about sharing their year-end fundraising results. Once the busy season slows down, nonprofits are not only left with a wealth of donations. How should nonprofits acknowledge economic setbacks?
