Biting the Hand that Feeds Us?
Over the past four years, there has been a lot of political rhetoric about the top three percent of income earners in the United States. Most of this rhetoric has been intended to somehow demonize this group because of their perceived success…and also to create a perception that they do not do their “fair share”Read More Biting the Hand that Feeds Us?
The Only Cure for Donor Fatigue
It happened again. I was meeting with a school head recently and she told me, “Our fundraising is flat, we are experiencing a lot of donor fatigue.” I told her that I was not surprised to hear that, because donor fatigue is easily spread through contact with unicorns. Ok, I really wasn’t that sarcastic (butRead More The Only Cure for Donor Fatigue
What the Futures Hold
I’ve just returned from the Giving Institute Summer Symposium where there was a fascinating discussion about the future of the nonprofit sector lead by Dr. Paul C.

Getting Used to the New Normal
Ok, the worst is behind us! That is what the overwhelming majority of economists now say about the recession. Most key indicators have turned upward from their lows, France and Germany just reported that their economies actually experienced growth in the second quarter and US exports are increasing, meaning other nations are feeling some recoveryRead More Getting Used to the New Normal
Keeping Things in Perspective
Last week the Georgia Center for Nonprofits released the results of a survey that indicated that 25 percent of nonprofit organizations in Atlanta reported that donations were down in the first half of 2009. While that is certainly not good news for the sector and clearly there are organizations who are struggling to meet their budgetedRead More Keeping Things in Perspective
American Donors Didn’t Quit
Today, June 10, the Giving USA Foundation released Giving USA 2009, its annual yearbook on giving for the year 2008. Although the book will not be released until August, Alexander Haas has advance access to this information. As an annual tradition our Firm shared these findings and our analysis of them on the day the data is released by the Foundation. AllRead More American Donors Didn’t Quit
Let the Donors Decide
Over the past several weeks we have been telling people “it’s the donors’ money, shouldn’t we let them decide what they want to do with it?” This has largely been in response to boards and staff who believe that the economy is bad so they should not ask anyone to give. But even if manyRead More Let the Donors Decide
