This document discusses trends in nonprofit fundraising in a post-COVID world. It identifies three key trends: 1) A shift to digital-first fundraising with increased individual giving online, a need for transparency and accountability, and opportunities for innovation. 2) More flexible funding models from donors and a need for nonprofits to diversify funding sources and be impactful, efficient and transparent. 3) The importance of finding niche focus areas and communities to serve as funding shifts, being aware of growing wealth gaps, and positioning for long-term success. The document promotes a new global digital fundraising service to help nonprofits professionalize fundraising.

Funding should be mandate driven – not the other way around!

Social Tribe – Special Edition Pulse Report – COVID-19SocialTribe
We can't imagine a greater challenge than the one we face today, a global pandemic that threatens the health and well being of our families and communities. As a 100% remote agency, we have not skipped a beat with the upheaval COVID-19 is causing around the world, and are doing everything we can to provide our clients and partners with informed, uninterrupted support.
Our perspective is that as populations shift towards indoor activities, there will be a greater need than ever before for organizations to shift resourcing towards online activations. As digital marketing experts, we're prepared to do everything we can to help you navigate these changes. We are happy to help discuss ideas, shifts, pivots--anything we need to do to keep your business healthy and positioned for growth.
Last year, the number of #GivingTuesday gifts reached 3,600,000, with the dollar amount peaking at $400 million.
There is no question that people are making hefty contributions…but are they making these donations to your organization? And if not, why?
The truth is that while #GivingTuesday provides an opportunity to bring in large donations and expand your donor base, you should be aware of the challenges that come with making fundraising appeals during this popular event in order to be successful.
During Give by Cell’s webinar, we discussed how to handle:
* Stiff holiday competition
* The limitations of social media
* Converting one-time gifts in recurring donations
Description: “Did you wonder if you are doing your Social Media Marketing correctly? Have you taken it to the edge or are you coloring safely inside the lines? Giovanni Gallucci will show you just how far you can go in his presentation, Extreme Social Media Marketing.”
This will be different than any presentation I’ve ever given.
Today we are going to walk thru a creative brief for a campaign which involves multiple online marketing channels.
Why?
What if you don’t sell social media?

A different kind of IT leadership is required in the digital age. New leadership styles and maybe even new leadership capabilities are needed to capture the business advantages of cloud, mobile, social, analytics and the InterNet of Things. This is now a team game, that cannot be won by individual star players alone. We will discuss how to lead multiple influencing networks and how to collaborate and challenge orthodoxies across organisational boundaries. Don’t ask if you need a CDO, ask if you have the right existing CxOs and if they are working together as digital leaders.”

Non-Profit Financial Planning for Uncertain Times.pptx.pdfMzN International
In uncertain times, financial scenario planning is a game-changer. In this webinar, we share how we use financial scenario planning to help our NGO partners navigate disruptive times. We will explore how financial forecasting, when done well, can be a deciding factor in impact generation.
Donor mapping is one of the most important tools in the fundraising process and getting it right determines the success or failure of your NGO. We review what a good donor map looks like, dive into the top five sections to focus on and share lessons learned from creating over 200 donor maps.
Learn about the most common questions that every proposal should answer to be successful. Our funding team uses these questions to ensure that every proposal we prepare with our NGO partners maximizes its chances for shortlisting and, ultimately, a funding award.
For our NGOs and International Organizations to not only survive but thrive, we need to change the way we are funded and improve the way we work. We need to manage our organizations better, be more agile, and need to diversify funding to make them more robust.
In this webinar, we reflect on 10 years of transforming non-profits into agile and better-funded changemakers. We identify five essential attributes that have made some MzN partners successful and thrive through times of crisis. We look ahead to see what leaders can do now to create organizations that deliver profound impact and advance in a disrupted world.
The budget is the centerpiece of a successful proposal. Over half of the proposal failures for USAID, EU and other major institutional donors are due to insufficient or incoherent budgets. We take an in-depth look at common mistakes, how to avoid them and what donors expect to see in a budget.
The Future NGO is Agile, digital and entrepreneurial.pptx.pdfMzN International
We reflect on 10 years of building better NGOs and International Organisations. What are the factors that successful organizations have in common? What does the non-profit of the future look like?
We have assisted non-profits with mergers and acquisitions, alliance structures, and joint ventures for over 10 years. We reflect on which mergers worked, what they cost, and why merging may not always be the answer.
Get an update on this quarter’s new funding streams. Our team will share donor trends, upcoming new funding streams, and programs from USAID, the EU, GIZ, Nordic donors, and the United Nations.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

3. 3 trends here to stay
1. Fast-track: digital-first (and
last)
2. Flexing organisational
muscles…and funding
3. Your place in the post-Covid19
ecosystem
4. 1. DIGITAL - FIRST
● 10 to 20% increase in individual giving between
2020-2021…(yes!)
● Donor fatigue…a myth? Engage and tell a story
● Design for digital first… + infrastructure, talent,
training
● Transparency and accountability
● Innovations to watch
Jim Collins and Jerry Porras
5. 2. FLEXING ORGANISATIONAL
MUSCLES….AND FUNDING
● Covid19 set a precedent - flexible funding
(re)naissance?
● Philanthropy (slow) awakening moment
● SIDA, NORAD, EU…leading the way or piloting
programme-based approach for humanitarian work
● Prioritise “FF” friendly donors
● Earn your core funding: be impactful, efficient,
transparent.
● Well funded NGOs react faster to change. A well
executed fundraising service is now more than “a
nice to have”
6. 3. FIND/ REDEFINE YOUR PLACE POST
COVID-19
● System change and complexity picking up
among donors & philanthropy: where do
you fit?
● More intentional about:
-Funding the frontline
-Funding ‘breakthrough’ solutions
-Who they do not want to partner with
● Find your tribe! And stick to it for the
long-run.
● Be aware of wealth gap = funding gap
Jim Collins and Jerry Porras
