How to Keep Big Donors Giving as the Pandemic Wears On Subscribe to the Chronicle Today for Insight and Advice
Wealthy donors have sustained many nonprofits ever since Covid spread around the world, but many of them are feeling emotionally drained because of the onslaught of appeals.
Many say they are tired of being treated as check-writing machines – especially as they are absorbing the never-ending spate of grim news posing new challenging for the social sector.

She’ll show you how to do that even as donors’ interests shift away from emergency giving and toward finding durable solutions to challenges in their hometowns and around the world.
