The “owner” of a nonprofit is the community, and the board is the voice of the community. To uphold their duty of care, board members must ensure they represent community interests in their decisions. Help your board members be active and engaged by understanding their primary duties. https://lnkd.in/eQcy_Mm7 #BoardLeadership #MissionDriven

Something that I've learned from my years in the fundraising industry is that donor relationships aren’t as easy as they seem... But maintaining these relationships is everything. Over the years, I’ve seen 5 common misconceptions nonprofits have about donor relationships. Misconception #1: “We need some quick fundraising wins” Misconception #2: “Donors don’t want to hear from us too often” Misconception #3: “Our organization’s reputation speaks for itself” Misconception #4: “We should only talk about major milestones” Misconception #5: “We should spend the majority of our time targeting companies and foundations” If these sound familiar, you’re not alone. Many nonprofits struggle with these pitfalls—and that’s why I’m creating an in-depth course on how to avoid them. ➡ Join the waitlist now to be first in line when it launches (which should be very, very soon!). Don’t miss out on this chance to strengthen your donor relationships and enhance your nonprofit’s impact. https://lnkd.in/grpAscbz

Although Americans trust philanthropic organizations more than government and businesses, almost a third believe not-for-profits are on the “wrong track,” according to a 2023 survey. But there are ways to manage public perception to help your nonprofit weather unexpected crises. For example, strive to be transparent and make communicating how you use donor funds a priority. Also enlist the help of staff and volunteers to put your nonprofit in the best possible light and be prepared to combat potential backlash when other nonprofits generate negative publicity. Finally, know when to cut your losses and move on.https://bit.ly/3V2RvXy
