The Virtuous Benchmark Report: Insights and Actionable Strategies for Nonprofits
Presented by David Cady, Virtuous CFO
Sponsored by Commotion Studios
What is your fundraising data telling you – and do you know how to use it?
The Virtuous Benchmark Report offers a roadmap for improving your fundraising results by examining the key benchmarks of successful fundraising programs. Take a deep dive into understanding what your organization’s data is telling you about what you’re doing right and what you can do differently for greater fundraising success.
This benchmark study focuses on seven key KPIs critical in determining the health of a nonprofit’s fundraising efforts:

Gross Donor Retention
Average and Median Gift Amount
Donor Expansion
Recurring Giving
Portfolio Balance
Donor Lifetime Value
New Donor Acquisition

The report provides actionable next steps for each KPI, helping you turn these insights into measurable improvements to make data-driven decisions that improve your organization’s results.

Getting Ready for a Successful Year End Appeal Campaign!
Plan Winning Year-end Appeals
Successful year-end appeals start with a written plan that documents every aspect of your print and digital communications. In this session, you’ll use Abeja’s proprietary creative brief to think through the strategy, creative requirements, and partners you need to have in place. Plus, attendees will get free access to the worksheets in Abeja’s new book, How to Fundraise by Mail: A Digital Native’s Guide, so you can save time, money, and headache in this critical Giving Season.

Brianna Klink and Laura A. Ingalls are the co-owners of Abeja Solutions, a woman-owned small business that helps nonprofits nationwide master direct mail fundraising. They met at a large nonprofit in Phoenix, where they planned and executed high-performing donor communications and trained thousands of nonprofit grantees across the U.S. and Canada. These small-to-medium organizations struggled to consistently ask, thank, and report impact back to donors, especially in the channel most donors prefer: mail. With friends, Laura and Brianna founded Abeja in 2014 to deliver a complete and affordable solution to direct mail fundraising. They recently co-authored their first book, How to Fundraise by Mail: A Digital Native’s Guide.

Planned Giving 101
Planned giving is a way to deepen relationships with donors and strengthen the long-term sustainability of your mission, yet it can also feel overwhelming to launch or manage without a clear strategy. Join Colleen Iuliucci, Regional Director at the Arizona Community Foundation, and Laura Maher, Vice President for Philanthropy at the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona, for an informative, collaborative session focused on tips and tricks to integrate planned giving into your organization’s fundraising strategy. We’ll discuss practical steps to build or enhance your planned giving program, explore common giving vehicles, and share additional resources. Expect a robust conversation and actionable tools, and please bring your own questions and ideas.
