Here at Funraise, we love intelligent reporting, and when it gives us insights into fundraising, we love it even more. Virtuous just released their Nonprofit Benchmarks Report, focusing on 7 metrics that drive resiliency and growth. Two of the most exciting to us are metrics 1 and 4: Donor Retention and Recurring Programs. It's no surprise that increasing donor retention or moving yearly donors to a monthly gift schedule can have drastic (positive) effects on your nonprofit's revenue, but Virtuous' growth examples really bring home the message.
