As nonprofit fundraisers, we’re always thinking about our donors first. We’re focused on recruiting them, retaining, engaging, and so on. And it’s all worth the effort because our donors are part of the lifeblood of our organizations—they’re the people who financially fuel our missions and help us produce real results.
