My kids chide me that I haven’t changed my hairstyle since Nixon was in office. (Actually, it may have been earlier than that.) Is it inertia,
bending to the cultural and professional norm, or the lack of enough “resources” to work with? Nonprofits often find themselves in that same predicament when it comes to their fundraising or development I heard this factoid quoted and wanted to pass it along...
90% of nonprofits use the same fundraising strategy today that they used 10 years ago –and less than half say it is “effective”!
If you are involved in a nonprofit (board, staff or volunteer), you owe it to your mission, the cause, and the people or pets you pledged to serve. Change requires recognition that your present activities aren’t getting the outcome you truly desire or your donors deserve. Next, an honest assessment of your processes and habits should happen. Often, an independent observer can provide perspective and counsel. Finally, a plan with new actions can be set in motion. Consider these low-cost efforts.
