Would you believe it if I told you that texting is now one of Boys Town's TOP revenue generating channels? Text messaging isn't just for appointment reminders. It's becoming one of the fastest and most effective ways nonprofits can deepen donor relationships. In this episode, I'm talking to Jasonea Shockey, Director of Digital Marketing at Boys Town, to share how her team launched their successful SMS strategy from scratch. With no new hires, they repurposed email content, added emojis, and saw sky-high engagement - think 98–99% open rates!Jasonea walks us through how they leveraged their existing donor list, balanced MMS vs. SMS campaigns, crafted welcome flows, and learned from benchmarks around timing and frequency to improve performance. Even with an aging donor base (average age: early 80s), they found surprisingly strong engagement through mobile.Whether you're working with a small team or wondering how to stay visible as email privacy rules evolve, this episode offers a clear case for why SMS belongs in your nonprofit's toolkit.P.S.

Dr. Diane Tober: Egg Donation Can Exploit Donors

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Diane Tober discuss the global egg donation industry, highlighting its lack of regulations and exploitative nature. Dr. Tober details some of her research on egg donors, revealing severe risks and some life-threatening complications that can affect 10-12% of donors. They discuss how donors are often uninformed about the risks and the pressures faced by donors to donate beyond current guidelines. With compensation varying wildly, there are often financial pressures that donors face, too. Finally, Dr. Tober advocates for standardized informed consent, actual limits on donation cycles, and a national registry to track donor health.    Key Takeaways: Changes to preserving and freezing eggs in 2013 changed from slow freezing to flash freezing, which better preserved the egg and changed the industry.  Not having limits on the number of children that can be born from donated sperm or eggs can have dire consequences for the people conceived from those donations. There are discrepancies in compensation based on education, race, and other traits that are considered to be desirable for intended parents. There are no consistent laws or regulations regarding who pays for donor medical complications.  There is no perfect system currently existing for egg donation. But creating a safer system could begin with a donor registry.    "Sometimes donors exceed the limit because of the financial incentives, and sometimes donors exceed the limit because they're coerced or enticed by the agencies or clinics that are using them and profiting off of them." —  Dr. Diane Tober   Connect with Dr. Diane Tober: Professional Bio: https://issr.ua.edu/people/diane-tober/  Website: https://dianetober.com/  Book: Eggonomics: The Global Market in Human Eggs and the Donors Who Supply Them LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianetober/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perfectdonor/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DianeToberPhD/    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

The South African Bone Marrow Registry (SABMR) is urgently appealing to young men between the ages of 16 and 35 to register as stem cell donors. SAMBR says their critical underrepresentation is costing lives. According to the group this deficit drastically limits the chances of finding suitable matches for patients with life-threatening blood cancers, especially those from certain ethnic groups. Despite being the most effective donors , young men make up only 8.9% of registered donors in the country, far below the global average of 39% .

Key Takeaways:Crises don't cancel out other needs. Multiple truths, missions, and urgencies can coexist. When we reject scarcity thinking, we make room for shared impact.Donors are not fragile. They can care deeply about more than one issue and often feel more compelled to give when reminded of what truly matters. Let them decide what resonates.Fundraising isn't about taking, it's about offering a meaningful way to contribute. Even in challenging times, inviting people to give can be an act of empowerment and connection.There will never be a “perfect” time to reach out. Don't let fear or timing stop the mission. Trust in your community, and ask with clarity and conviction. “Donors are capable of caring about multiple causes at the same time, and in fact, many people even feel more motivated to give...” “People give where they're connected. You aren't taking away from anyone by offering donors the opportunity to support your work.” “Trust your donors. Trust their ability to discern a situation and decide what's right for them.” - Maryanne Dersch   Ask for and receive all you want, need, and deserve without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.

Most first-time donors are testing the waters—curious if your nonprofit delivers on its promise and if a deeper connection is worth their investment. That's why speed isn't just a courtesy in stewardship; it's a strategy. In this episode, I explore how re-qualifying new donors within the first 90 days can mean the difference between a one-time gift and a lifetime of giving. The data is clear: fast, thoughtful follow-up—especially from the right people—dramatically boosts your donor retention and major gift potential.

Samantha Rux from OSF Healthcare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to give tips on keeping safe while grilling this summer. Grilling season is here, but safety should be on the menu alongside your favorite burgers. The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that both charcoal and gas grills come with hidden dangers, including fatal carbon monoxide poisoning and gas explosions. To reduce risk, never use charcoal indoors or store a grill with smoldering coals inside. For gas grills, always check for leaks every time you reconnect the propane tank, and keep all components in top condition. Use grills outdoors, away from buildings, and remember—never start a gas grill with the lid closed. Following these tips can help ensure your backyard barbecue stays safe and fun. Visit https://healthlibrary.osfhealthcare.org/ for more grill safety tips. ImpactLife is calling on community members to roll up their sleeves and help save lives during an upcoming blood drive on June 19th. Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment and make a vital contribution that could change the course of a patient's recovery. Just one donation can make a difference for those in urgent need. Participants can sign up easily online at osf.care/Lbha50VZaUr. Every pint counts, especially as summer months often see shortages. ImpactLife invites everyone eligible to join this life-saving effort and make an impact in just a few minutes.

"...We cannot attempt to recount here the long story of all good causes which came to be recognized only after lonely pioneers had devoted their lives and fortunes to arousing the public conscience, of their long campaigns until at last they gained support..."This week, I'm reflecting on this quote by Friedrich Hayek from The Constitution of Liberty, published in 1960.Reflection questions: As you consider this quote, are there donors that come to mind?  Donors who will devote their time and wealth sacrificially for the causes we serve?How will you walk beside these donors to support and encourage them in their community leadership?Reflection on quote:The role of wealth in our society and in nonprofit work has been much debated.  While we are all aware of demanding donors with unproductive ideas, on LinkedIn, someone posted a quote discussing how individual donors can create positive societal change.A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of coaching a client through a gap campaign where the client had to raise $2 million in 6 weeks or face significant financial consequences. Quietly, a small group of major donors stepped in.  The leadership of these donors has and will lead to more giving by the community.  As Hajek states, when donors employ their wealth sacrificially in order to arouse the public conscience, there can be significant societal change.  The challenge for us as fund development professionals is to identify within our communities and donor databases those lonely pioneers willing to devote their lives and fortunes to our causes and work beside them.What do you think?

Younger Donors: New Fundraising Strategies

First Day Podcast

In this episode of The First Day from The Fundraising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes back the brilliant Una Osili, Ph.D., Associate Dean for Research at the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. They dive into the hot-off-the-press study, The Next Generation of Philanthropy, revealing how Millennials and Gen Z are shaping the future of charitable giving. Spoiler alert: these younger donors may not have all the money yet, but they sure have the passion, and they're bringing fresh expectations to the table. Bill and Una explore how these rising generations prioritize causes over organizations, a key shift from older donor behaviors. Basic needs and religious giving remain top priorities, though younger donors' religious contributions often go toward faith-based service organizations rather than traditional houses of worship. On the other hand, education and the arts are facing challenges: younger donors show lower engagement with these sectors, partly due to shifting trust and priorities, as well as personal experiences with student debt. As Una emphasizes, understanding these motivations is critical for fundraisers looking to engage the donors of tomorrow. The conversation also highlights the growing emphasis Millennials and Gen Z place on social justice and environmental causes. These younger donors want to see tangible impact and often view giving as just one piece of a broader social commitment, which includes advocacy, activism, and socially conscious consumerism. And don't underestimate the power of social media, it's both a discovery tool and a megaphone for these digital natives, influencing not only what they support but how they share their philanthropic journeys with their networks. Bill and Una wrap up with a clear call to action: fundraisers must meet younger donors where they are, on social platforms, through personalized engagement, and with messaging that connects cause to impact. As Dr. Osili wisely notes, Millennials and Gen Z are redefining philanthropy with a broader, more inclusive lens. The future of giving is not just about writing a check; it's about building a movement. And for today's fundraisers, adapting to this mindset is not optional, it's essential.

What 1,000 Donors Told Us About Nonprofit Auctions!

Auctions are far from obsolete—and the data proves it. We sit down with Karrie Wozniak, Chief Marketing Officer at OneCause, and Sarah Sebastian, Director of Corporate Communications, to dive into their comprehensive “State of Nonprofit Auctions” report. Backed by responses from over 1,000 donors and nonprofit professionals, this conversation might transform how you perceive auctions in today's fundraising landscape.The core takeaway? Nonprofit auctions are not only surviving—they're thriving. According to the report, 77% of nonprofits saw consistent or increased auction revenue last year, and 90% expect that growth to continue. “Auction donors are some of the most generous people we see,” Karrie shares. “The average donation per auction donor is $529—more than double that of social donors.” That stat alone reframes the perceived value of auctions!!Even more compelling: the donor experience is changing. Gift cards, not fine art or rare collectibles, top the list of most bid-on items. “People want tangible, usable items,” adds Sarah. “Less than 20% of attendees are even interested in collectibles.” Their findings challenge long-held assumptions and provide a roadmap for curating auction items that attract a wide donor demographic.Technology, not surprisingly, is a game-changer. From outbid notifications to AI-style item suggestions, Gen Z and millennial donors are raising the bar. 65% of younger donors want real-time text updates, and 60% favor “Buy It Now” options. “These digital-first behaviors can't be ignored,” Sarah says. “They signal expectations nonprofits need to meet to stay competitive.”The impact doesn't end when the auction closes. The long-term data speaks volumes: 83% of attendees said they became annual donors, 64% would give monthly, and 91% said they'd make another one-time donation within the year. “This isn't just about one night,” Karrie describes. “It's a strategy for lifelong donor engagement.”From shifting generational preferences to the rise of hybrid events, this lively episode delivers useable ideas and data that will leave fundraisers rethinking their auction playbooks.00:00:00 Intro and Guest Welcome  00:01:28 What OneCause Does  00:03:54 Evolution of Auction Technology  00:06:22 Origins of the Auction Research  00:08:05 Do Auctions Still Work?  00:09:43 Auction Donors Are More Generous  00:13:05 Top Auction Items by Popularity  00:16:24 Everyday Donors and Item Accessibility  00:18:33 Virtual Auctions and Broader Reach  00:20:08 Long-Term Donor Engagement from Auctions  00:24:11 Generational Differences in Auction Behavior  00:26:47 How Many Items Should You Include?#NonprofitFundraising #AuctionStrategy #DonorBehaviorFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Ignore them, and you don't just lose a gift; you risk losing a legacy.

Hali Lee's The Big We (Zando, 2025) offers a compelling counterpoint to traditional billionaire-driven philanthropy (which she dubs "Big Phil"). Instead of logic models and donor-centric metrics, Lee champions giving circles—groups of everyday people who pool resources to support causes they value while building genuine community connections. Drawing from her experiences founding the Asian Women Giving Circle and co-creating the Donors of Color Network, Lee showcases giving circles making tangible impact: Seiji's neighborhood-focused Radfund in Brooklyn, Lily's youth philanthropy group in Arizona, and Lisa's circle that's moved over $1 million to progressive state legislative candidates. These stories illustrate how small, collective actions can drive significant change while fostering belonging and joy. The book's "Me to We to Big We" framework guides readers from personal reflection on values toward collective action and ultimately toward strengthening democracy itself. Lee argues that giving circles aren't merely funding mechanisms—they're antidotes to loneliness, laboratories for civic engagement, and bridges reconnecting us to cultural traditions of generosity. By democratizing philanthropy, these circles transform not just how we give, but how we relate to each other and engage as citizens in an increasingly fragmented society.

In this episode, I sit down with Maria from Soft Landing Missoula- an incredible nonprofit helping refugee and immigrant families build new lives in Montana. We talk about how they got started, how they fund their work, and the emotional reality of fundraising in a world that's constantly shifting.Maria shares what it's like to lead fundraising efforts at an organization where over half of their revenue comes from individual donors and what she's hearing from those donors right now. Spoiler alert: It's not always about money. Sometimes donors just need to process what's happening in the world, and Maria's learning how to hold space for that while keeping her focus.We also talk honestly about what it means to lead yourself well during tough times, how to listen without taking everything at face value, and why emotional intelligence might be your most important skill as a fundraiser.What we cover in this episode:The mission and impact of Soft Landing MissoulaWhy people in their community give and keep givingNavigating the emotional side of donor conversationsThe difference between what donors say and what they doFundraising challenges in uncertain political and economic timesWhy you should trust the data over the noiseWhat bravery looks like when you're asking for big giftsMy favorite moment?

Many nonprofits focus only on digital or direct mail, but you don't have to choose — nor should you. Donors crave cohesive, consistent experiences across multiple touchpoints, and getting your digital and direct mail efforts in sync can help you deliver. In this episode of the Go Beyond Fundraising podcast, we're talking with David Sacchetti, AVP of Client Strategy, about how a direct mail strategy backed by a complementary digital campaign can help solve the myriad challenges today's fundraisers face. No matter where you are with each channel, David offers actionable advice for leveling up. We discuss the importance of storytelling across channels to guide donors toward giving, with David sharing the digital trends that fit perfectly into a direct mail–first campaign. We also cover why your fundraising and marketing teams must work together to ensure brand impressions become donations.

Tommy sits down with three experts in the party's digital fundraising space to talk about how this model became the norm, why it may be hurting Democrats more than it helps, and how that campaign — you know the one — got your cell phone number. Blue State Digital founder Joe Rospars joins to diagnose the problem, our own Dan Pfeiffer weighs in on its impact, and ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones explains why Democrats rely on the tactic and lays out what we stand to lose if Trump's attacks against her organization succeed. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Andrew begins this episode by emphasizing that fundraisers should expect failures as normal parts of the job.  There's no way to avoid potential donors who respond unfavorably, and to effectively handle this inevitable rejection, fundraisers have to remember that rejection isn't personal.  Donors have countless reasons for declining that rarely relate to the fundraiser themselves.After sharing their list of daunting statistics for fundraisers, Andrew and Rhen follow up by discussing coping strategies for perceived failure.  Long story short:  a resilient mindset and supportive community help fundraisers persist through challenges, knowing that facing and overcoming failure is fundamental to eventual fundraising success.
