End of Year Giving Tips
Can you believe 2006 will soon be drawing to a close? Many non profits
send out a year end appeal for donations sometime between October and
December.
Your organization has a chance to inform your supporters about the
work you've been doing this year and give them another chance to support
the mission financially. Here are two articles from Richard Male &
Associates that are particularly instructive on the topic of year-end
giving appeals:

Community groups, senior care services, social service organizations,
alumni associations, visual & performing arts and other cause oriented
groups can put on a houseparty.
I recently led a planning committee which held a successful party
by following a guidebook on the topic.
