- Donation Processing Fees, Uncovered
Donation Processing Fees, Uncovered Are you getting the whole story when it comes to approaching charitable donation fee coverage? The perceived pressure to process donations at zero cost to nonprofits feels like the right thing to do, but the truth is it’s unrealistic. The notion that there is a cost associated with charitable giving, is well known and widely accepted. How you manage that cost is what really matters. This is where misconception, misunderstanding and confusion seep into the narrative. You're not getting the whole story when it comes to approaching fee coverage in a way that aligns with your mission, your brand and your business. The secret is you don’t need to take an all or nothing approach. With the right tools you can develop a charitable support plan that is unique to your company and programs while still being cognizant of nonprofits needs and challenges.
- Looking Back on 2020
Looking Back on 2020 A year of history-defining moments, challenges and — thanks to Impact Makers like you — silver linings. Do you remember how you felt last January? In so many ways, it feels like a lifetime ago. We were heading into a new year and a new decade filled with goals, aspirations and a few resolutions. By February and March, we began setting aside our best laid plans as the country and world entered the pandemic, and resulting economic devastation, food insecurity, and job uncertainty. The challenges were overwhelming and abrupt. At the very least, we’ve all experienced the psychological effects of this year. Despite all this, there have been incredible stories of innovative thinking and hope in helping those most in need. New and extraordinary challenges required the best problem-solving and agile mindsets. In the early days of the pandemic, adaptability and flexibility became critical coping skills. Since its onset, we’ve witnessed amazing acts of kindness, giving, and resolve, and along the way noticed a few silver linings and learnings from 2020.
- GivingTuesday 2020 Results
#GivingTuesday 2020: A Record Breaking Day Driven by Generosity & Hope This #GivingTuesday, people around the world committed their voice, time, and money to support causes they care about. With each gift given, a rallied sense of hope. While the world may look a little different for #GivingTuesday this year, it makes the results even more inspiring. During our webinar with GivingTuesday's Chief Data Officer Woodrow Rosenbaum and CyberGrants' Pete Karns this past November, they spoke at length about why GivingTuesday matters, the global impact of GivingTuesday, and most importantly, how “generosity is an antidote to isolation, fear, and division.” As evidenced by the early results we have seen from GivingTuesday 2020, kindness and generosity knows no bounds.
