Your board should be your nonprofit’s biggest cheerleaders—not silent bystanders (or worse, critics).

Donors aren’t ATMs. If giving feels like a cold transaction, you’re doing it wrong.
Create an experience instead—one where donors feel connected, valued, and inspired.

Frugality ≠ Long term success.
Running a nonprofit on a shoestring might sound noble—but it’s not a long-term strategy. Donors want to see impact, and they know real impact requires real investment.

It’s time to reframe the conversation around nonprofit spending.
Frugality is not the same as effectiveness—and savvy donors know the difference.

One of the biggest—and most avoidable—mistakes nonprofits make? Not making it easy for donors to give.
Whether it is a contribution from a DAF, a check, or some other specific form of payment, your job is to make it easy to contribute.
