Let's Get Connected

Welcome to the first issue of our magazine, Connected Giving. We’re thrilled to bring Connected Giving to you each month, highlighting some of our great customers, innovative ideas, fundraising techniques, and new things from iDonate. Our customers are doing some amazing work and we felt this would be a great way to highlight them and the change they’re making in our world.

You may wonder where the name Connected Giving comes from…‘Connected Giving’ is a term we use around iDonate to discuss how we help nonprofits build donors for life. It’s an all-encompassing solution for the continual problem of donors giving once, or maybe even a few times, but unfortunately never returning for ongoing support. iDonate’s DNA is to equip organizations for long-term donor relationships, not short-term transactions. We believe the key to this is creating great giving experiences that are donor-centric, personal, relevant, and consistent with your brand at every touchpoint. We’ll discuss the CRM and other nonprofit technology, how your donor relationships are won or lost at the point of giving, and how you nurture that relationship moving forward. Applying these principles into a holistic donor strategy is what we call Connected Giving. 

We’ve dedicated this magazine to discussing these principles and how iDonate helps nonprofits become Connected Giving Organizations. We’ll showcase how our customers apply Connected Giving, analyze their techniques, and encourage you with their incredible results.

Thank you for taking the time to read this issue of Connected Giving. Reach out and let us know how we can make the magazine even more valuable for you.

Let’s get connected.
