October 25, 2021Customer relationship management systems (CRMs) have become standard in the nonprofit industry, and for a good reason. No excel sheet can do what they do. A robust CRM with supporting powerful donation and marketing tools will not only organize your constituents but optimize your fundraising efforts for more funds raised and happier donors.
July 22, 2022I recently googled “Volunteer” on Google images and got 972,000,000 pictures. The first two pages of images, since I didn’t look at all 972 million, displayed 30 images, and 11 (just over 1/3) of those pictures were like the ones below. The following graphics are used by many organizations to promote their volunteer opportunities. When you click on the image, you are linked through to the website of the organization that is trying to recruit volunteers. As I looked at many appeals for volunteers, I asked, “What is wrong with this picture?” The answer? Twenty-first century volunteers do not want to raise their hands.
July 19, 2022What are some of the benefits of volunteering for College and University Students? For university and college students planning their future careers and preparing to step into the workforce, it is easy to feel nervous, overwhelmed, and unprepared. As a student myself, these are feelings I know all too well. We sometimes feel we lack the necessary skills, expertise, and connections to get the jobs and opportunities we want. We may even feel intimidated by the interview process, believing we are some kind of imposter waiting to be caught out. Volunteering is one great way to deal with this!
