“Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.”
These are crazy crazy times. The philanthropic sector is being challenged. While the challenge doesn’t feel good right now, we need to look at this as an opportunity. An opportunity to implement the extraordinary . . . with extraordinary results.
In the US, there are approximately 1.3 million organizations in the philanthropic sector. The organizations feed, house, heal, rebuild, educate, inspire and nuture people in every demographic and socioeconomic status. Every day, these organizations "foster civic engagement and leadership, drive economic growth and strengthen the fabric of our communities."
These are indeed trying times. Our world is faced with a pandemic that has all but stopped our daily lives. Around the world our fellow humans are coming together (apart) to defeat this deadly disease.
Do you know your donors? Not as a group, but individually?
Crowdfunding is the practice of raising money from a large number of people who give smaller gifts, via the internet.
The most successful nonprofit Crowdfunding campaigns encourage peer-to-peer fundraising and raise more because of it (Fundly).
