And it’s all about our donors , the ones who are deserting us. Donors can be fickle, and they’re fleeing our organizations in vast numbers these days. Overall, the numbers are disappointing and stark. Research completed by Target Analytics® in 2015 shows that: Only 29% of first-time donors renewed their gifts.
