Everyone Needs Reminding
We are in this together — deepening a culture of philanthropy in our organizations, our communities, and across the boundaries of states and nations.
Important work. A high calling.
And we need to help each other along the way.
Fundraising — effective relationship building — can be intensive. Lots of moving pieces and lots of things to prioritize. Those of us who do it every day can forget how team members without direct development responsibility might feel: fearful, apprehensive, confused. And volunteers have other responsibilities such as important jobs, family and health concerns.
