This document discusses relationship fundraising and outlines a project to review and refine the theory and practice. It includes summaries of interviews with fundraisers who discuss placing donors at the center, understanding them, connecting them to causes, and building deeper, two-way relationships. It also notes challenges like focusing too much on organizations over causes, lack of internal relationships, and pressure for short-term gains. The authors aim to provide a paradigm shift to critically evaluate concepts and address challenges in fundraising.
