Many nonprofits make a serious error in thinking that the annual reporting of how the sector’s doing is predictive of the future. In reality, external factors such as changes in the economy, donor expectations, and leadership, have a much more significant impact on a nonprofit's future performance.

By Glenn Gamboa, AP Business Writer Nam Y. Huh/AP Corporations and foundations pledged billions for racial equity after the police killing of George Floyd in 2020. But statistics show that philanthropic money flows unequally to nonprofits with white leaders versus leaders of color. The goal is to create a straightforward, accessible survey so nonprofits would no longer have to provide specialized diversity information for each of their donors.

Everyone likes to feel appreciated and that includes your donors. In fact, thanking your donors should be a priority for your nonprofit organization. Is that the case? Often the answer is no. Thanking your donors is not just something you do after you receive a donation and then do nothing for a while. Gratitude is something you need to show all year round and with Valentine’s Day coming up, that’s a great opportunity to thank your donors and show them how much you appreciate their support.

In our 2023 Nonprofit Communications Trends Report , we asked if you would be looking for a job with a different organization in 2023. More than a third (34%) of nonprofit communications staff plan to look for new jobs in 2023.

This decade started with a tectonic reckoning sparked by a global pandemic that revealed the deep inequities in the United States. This was followed by the police murder of George Floyd, a tipping point that revitalized the racial justice movement.

When the pandemic started almost three years ago, a story swept through the nonprofit world. Something like this: Donors are scared, hunkered down, distracted; don’t try connecting with them because they’ll react negatively. You won’t raise money, and you’ll drive away donors! That was not at all what happened. Donors responded to all kinds of causes with unprecedented generosity.
