Monthly giving is an incredibly powerful way for you to kick-start your fundraising program’s earning potential. Cultivating relationships with donors who are already connected to your cause by asking them to make smaller, ongoing gifts means more money for your organization today, and a strong list of prospects for upgraded and larger gifts in the future. Monthly giving helps your organization attain predictable income and lower the number of fundraising requests you receive from donors, cutting back on administrative costs. This constant income stream means less worry about cash flow, and more focus on long term programming and initiatives. So what are you doing to nurture your one-time donors into monthly donors? If you’re ready to uncover the next great idea, we encourage you to download our free “Growing Your Monthly Donors” white paper!
