Small-dollar donors fuel missions by providing steady, predictable revenue and grassroots support. Yet this critical group is shrinking, in part because transactional fundraising approaches can leave everyday supporters feeling like ATMs, rather than valued partners.

Join us for a 75-minute webinar in which two executives will offer proven ways to reverse this trend by building relationships with everyday donors. Drawing on real-world successful campaigns, they’ll show how to boost loyalty and connections with direct-response donors.

Whether you’re looking to boost donor retention, diversify revenue, or future-proof your fundraising plan, you’ll walk away with practical ideas you can put to work right away to grow and sustain your everyday donor base.

You’ll learn:

  • How to identify and more deeply engage your loyal donors
  • Proven ways to make small-dollar donors feel special and build a sense of community
  • Key elements of online fundraising campaigns that activate everyday donors
