What assumptions is your team making about #GivingTuesday? The team at GivingTuesday debunks three myths about this fundraising day. 1. If you think people are being asked to donate too often, think again. 50% of donors don't remember being asked to donate. 2. GivingTuesday isn’t just about donating money. 32% of participants took part in multiple ways, giving a combination of time, money, and/or goods. 3. GivingTuesday is more than a day of one-off gifts. It's an opportunity for more giving all year. In 2022, GivingTuesday surpassed New Year’s Eve as the biggest day of the year for new donor acquisition, and 12% of monthly recurring donors got their start by donating on GivingTuesday.

Did you know that 9 out of 10 higher education organizations aren’t sharing why donors should make monthly gifts? This is a huge missed opportunity! Monthly giving can be a game-changer for your institution. Recurring donors tend to give more over time, are more engaged, and provide a steady stream of income that helps sustain your programs long-term. Yet, most organizations aren’t effectively communicating the benefits and impact of monthly donations. The result? Missed donations and reduced engagement. This is where CharityAuctionsToday can make all the difference. 🚀 Whether it’s funding scholarships, enhancing facilities, or supporting new programs, our tools make it simple to tell the story behind each donation. Stop missing out on loyal monthly donors and start growing your donor base today with CharityAuctionsToday. Ready to make the shift? Let's get started!

Imagine if instead of having to call your donors to ask for gifts, they called you first because they just couldn't wait to give to your organization! What would make them do this? The same thing that leads anyone to do something in a similar fashion, PASSION!💖 Your donors want to help change the world too! When you present them with an offer that shows them how their money will specifically go to help a cause that they're passionate about, they'll be WAY more excited to give, versus if you just asked them to donate in a general and nonspecific way. Want to learn how to create donor offers that will help you connect your mission with your donor's heart? We're hosting a live workshop on September 19th at 2PM EST where we'll teach your our method and system for creating donor offers. Register for the workshop, "How to Create Meaningful and Effective Donor Offers," at the link in our bio. #donorrelations #donoroffers #fundraisingtips #nonprofitwork #fundraisers #nonprofitfundraiser #nonprofitprofessional

Are you inundating guests at your fundraising event with too many donation opportunities? While the primary aim of a fundraising event is to raise funds, it's essential to be mindful of how we request donations from our guests. Often, I consult with nonprofits who want to offer numerous giving opportunities, which can lead to guests feeling overwhelmed. This sense of overwhelm can cause guests to detach from the fundraising experience, negatively impacting your fundraising outcomes . They key is to find the right balance between fundraising opportunities and guest engagement. There is a strategy behind asking for money during a fundraising event and effectively using that strategy can be the difference between achieving your fundraising goals while ensuring your guests have a meaningful experience, and not achieving your goals because your guests have disconnected from the event because they felt you asked them too many times to donate throughout the night. Reach out if you're interested in discovering ways to create meaningful donation moments for your guests, ensuring they feel positive about contributing at your fundraising event. #emcee #auctioneer #partnerinfundraising #nonprofits #meaningfulmoments

2moI always thought that we could ask for donations to much and that donors would get tired of a company asking for donations. So, I would only ask a particular donor for a donations one time. That's what makes this information so important to me.
