Unlocking The Mystery of Donor Retention
with Barbara O'Reilly
of Windmill Hill Consulting
Tuesday, April 2, 1:30-3pm, on Zoom
Did you know that on average, nonprofits lose more than 60% of their donors each and every year? This donor churn creates unnecessary work and is not cost effective for nonprofits, especially those with limited capacity. In particular, we know that your next major donors are probably right under your nose and you don’t know it. So, just what can an organization do to increase the loyalty of its donors?
In this session we will discuss how to unlock the mystery of donor retention by learning about:
- What matters to donors and how that affects their giving decisions.
- How to build a fundraising strategy that focuses on increasing donor retention.
- Creating greater engagement with your current donors so they are inspired to increase their giving.
