In early March of this year, members of Orr Group’s senior leadership sat down virtually and discussed what was at the time, the key things impacting nonprofit organizations in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, including economic trends, the stimulus package, fundraising, leadership, and more. Six months later, our senior leaders – Steve Orr, Kelly Dunphy, CJ Orr, Craig Shelley, and Shaby Rosales – sat down to once again to talk philanthropy and discuss trends we’re seeing in the field today, the future of fundraising, and more. As part of the conversation, we discussed our findings from our State of the Nonprofit Sector Survey, including the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on programming, strategic planning, major giving, and campaigns. We also explore why now is the right time to be investing in your teams and acquiring diverse talent. And last, but certainly not least, we come back to the importance of communication — what we said six-months ago, still rings true today… Communicate often, and openly, with your donors as you continue to navigate the new philanthropic landscape ahead.
