Nice post from the Veritus Group Blog: 7 Wishes for Non-Profit Leaders in 2023 : Less Fear. Fear wrecks fundraising fast. You might be afraid donors will be offended if you ask.

Most charitable donations—whether from large corporations or individual donors—happen at the end of the year. That’s why the holiday season is the busiest for nonprofits. With all those donations, though, nonprofits often forget about sharing their year-end fundraising results. Once the busy season slows down, nonprofits are not only left with a wealth of donations.
