Immediate Actions for Fundraising

We have fundraised through the HIV/AIDS pandemic, through resurgences of tuberculosis and its drug resistant strains, and the often hidden Hepatitis-C, not to mention a long list of childhood genetic impairments.

Social distancing is already breaking down the safety net for nonprofits that rely on volunteers. Further, if your nonprofit relies on client fees, you may lose revenue tied to serving clients who are backing away from attending trainings, screenings, meals, etc. Human contact is the lifeblood of so many health and human-services and arts and culture organizations, essential not just to deliver services but to generate revenue to survive. We must introduce innovative ways to connect and to manage and avoid social distancing.
