Does your organization have a policy in place should a donor want to donate stock instead of the usual check? What if a gift is tied to something that is unrelated to your mission? This paper touches on different types of gifts and discusses when it may not be appropriate to accept someone's donation.
Many boards spend considerable time defining the board’s role in securing adequate resources for the organization. Personal contribution is an essential part of that discussion. Each board should determine its own personal giving policy. For boards that raise funds, the target should be to reach 100-percent board member participation.
Do your board members have the tools they need to execute a successful fundraising strategy? This 33-slide, customizable PowerPoint presentation outlines key aspects of fundraising for nonprofit boards, including fundraising responsibilities, fundraising facts and figures, stages of fundraising, and types of fundraising.
Creating a separate but affiliated fundraising organization — a foundation for the purpose of raising funds — is not for every nonprofit. If your board is considering the option, it is important to identify the various challenges and benefits such a foundation might bring with it.
Giving Tuesday is a huge day for nonprofits across the country, and we hope you are in the midst of a successful one. But what do you do when it's all over? How do you determine how effective your fundraising strategies were? To help with this, BoardSource has developed a framework we believe is a responsible and reasonable way of thinking about and measuring fundraising effectiveness.
