Hi John, Happy Friday!
One of the major issues on everyone’s mind today is the coronavirus outbreak. Many people are worried and uncertain about what to expect. Smart nonprofits are concerned how all this uncertainty will impact fundraising. Nervous donors are looking at the stock market. Many people are feeling anxious. Today, I am sharing a guide for what to do and say right now. You’re getting questions from board members, and your donors may be a bit uneasy. You may be wondering about whether to cancel events.
Here’s what to expect with major donors and capital campaigns:
I’m addressing how to: Deal with uncertain times Handle major donors who feel anxious Take advantage of this time if donors are holding off Take a quick look and share your own perspective. There will be light at the end of this tunnel. And in the long run, major donors who care and who have capacity will always be there for you and your cause. Stay safe and healthy, Dedicated to your fundraising success, Gail |
