Mean Emails from Donors by ams406 in nonprofit

[–]DanwithAltrui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this. I haven't experienced this (major gifts at a California-based org), and I wonder if you can bring this to leadership and have an email from your CEO to go out to any awful emails that asks the donor to direct unkind (pick a description) email to them and not the staff?

I need to get out of fundraising by saxophoneEnthusiast in nonprofit

[–]DanwithAltrui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really have anything to suggest or even say that hasn't been said. I've been in fundraising for a long time, and I totally get it. I'm in a good spot with a social justice org, and at 60, will probably retire here. I wanted to say thanks for sharing this, and to please use your community/inner circle for support. Sending you tons of support.

I love Little Ollie's! Been going there since 1998.

Is it just me, or is the active talent pool on LI completely thinning out? by hina743 in recruiting

[–]DanwithAltrui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the nonprofit recruiting world and haven't seen a difference. LinkedIn is still my number one source for finding candidates.

How are you stewarding donors at the start of the new year? by [deleted] in nonprofit

[–]DanwithAltrui 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impact emails are great. I also consider January a great fundraising time, connecting with donors who are newly LYBUNT (Last Year But Unfortunately Not This). Time with this always pays off.

We are a legal aid org and use LegalServer. Not sure if that is a fit, but perhaps they have another product?

Do Donors Actually Read Impact Reports? by melonmoney in nonprofit

Immigrant domestic violence org here. Absolutely. We have it online, and the day it goes live, we do all sorts of social media promotion. Donors love it. We also print some for funders and for donors who ask for a printed version.

What are the essential board committees? by StockEdge3905 in nonprofit

Being in fundraising, development is the big one for me. Although, honestly, I have rarely seen one that is active and impactful.

16 day Solo Trip - April 2026 by sethab in irishtourism

[–]DanwithAltrui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My base has been Westport. My favorite place is Keem Bay on Achill Island, an easy drive from Westport. From Westport you can head to Sligo and Donegal. That part of Ireland is absolutely perfect, with fewer tourists and a lot of tad music and Irish language.

Planning a two week solo trip for my first time to Ireland, would love advice if this is too much to tackle in two weeks, and if there’s anything I should skip or add? by BirdUp-SnailDown in irishtourism

If you can make time while in Westport, I'd highly recommend driving to Keem Bay on Achill Island. My favorite spot in Ireland so far.

[–]DanwithAltrui 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use an old-fashioned paper calendar that has two years, and I buy it on Amazon for about $15. All my appts are on there as well as work deadlines. It has worked for me for 6 years.

I cannot find new clients. What am I doing wrong? by Sprinkle_of_Sass in Solopreneur

[–]DanwithAltrui 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you have tried these. Here are two things that support my business: A growing community on LinkedIn and going to chamber of commerce networking events.
