In the subsequent 4 months, nearly 250 of those donors gave again, or about 18%, bringing in nearly $20,000. In three days, our volunteers left messages or spoke with roughly 1,350 donors. About 40-50% of the numbers we had in our database were out of date. One issue the volunteers ran into was a significant percentage of bad telephone numbers. We didn't have any board members participating this year because of time conflicts, but we plan on getting them involved next year. The volunteers really enjoyed the experience, and several ended up coming multiple nights in a row. Volunteers came at 6:00 PM, given pizza and instructions, and put on the phones. I originally wanted to do four nights, but we canceled one because it was the night of the national election. I set up a bank of seven phones in an open room, and worked with our volunteer coordinator to ask volunteers to do 3 hour shifts on three different nights. We wanted to reach out to these donors and make them feel special and connected to what we're doing. The acronym that development people use for these kind of donors is "lybunty" (last year but unfortunately not this year). I created a list of about 3,000 donors who had given the year before but not in the previous twelve months. Give "Thanks" with a joyful heart!Īt the beginning of the 2018 holiday giving season, the food bank decided to do a thank-a-thon to reconnect with donors who had not given in the previous year. They expect checks to come in at the offertory, but rarely do they think of how to show their gratitude for the generosity of the congregation. Sad to say, churches have some of the worse reputations for a lack of gratitude. Organizations send out request letters, emails, and online fundraising appeals, but then do a terrible job of saying thank you. Reconnect with your donors and express your organization's gratitude for their To do a phone campaign without an ask? Phone fundraising campaigns fulfillĭifferent roles than a thank-a-thon. The secret of the thank-a-thon's success is that it doesn't have a traditional "ask."
