Fundraising is broken. There's no sugar-coating things. Our inboxes are filled to the brim with free webinars promising the latest and the greatest. We're deluged with information, yet fundraising numbers have never been worse. The latest from the Fundraising Effectiveness Project (FEP), paints a discouraging picture. Donors were down 7.6% and new donors were down 16.9%. Then the other day I got this email from Valerie: “Donors – both individuals and corporations – are exhausted, weary, and frustrated.” Our sector is calling out for a return to the basics. And that’s exactly what you’ll get with Fundraising Fundamentals Summer Camp. It’s a program that’s guaranteed to raise more money for your mission through all three summer months — resulting in your best ever year-end appeal. And it will train your brain and your mindset to take on whatever the world throws at us next. https://lnkd.in/dqmYWjc8
It's time to get back to basics and truly connect with our donors. Nice initiative!
