Guest on Inspired Nonprofit Leadership Podcast: The Joy of Receiving Large Unrestricted Gifts with Sherry Quam Taylor
“Sherry, why have you focused your business around helping nonprofits secure unrestricted gen-ops dollars when those are the hardest gifts to secure?”
That’s the opening question I got during a podcast interview a few years ago.
My answer?
Um….cause it’s not as hard as you might think.
You see, even before this whole federal funding reduction debacle, I had a growing number of clients secure SUBSTANTIAL general-operating gifts in the last six months.
SUBSTANTIAL = $500K, $700K, $1M, $1.5M, $5M
“Nobody wants to give unrestricted gifts” is completely untrue and a damaging invisible script in the nonprofit sector.
It must stop.
You CAN equip your fundraisers with the skills to ATTRACT these types of funders/donors and SECURE large investments in the form of gen-ops gifts.
This is exactly what Sarah Olivieri and I talked about on a recent episode of her Podcast, Inspired Nonprofit Leadership we're calling “The Joy of Receiving Large, Unrestricted Gifts."
