nurture & grow
your recipe for fundraising success!
tired of trying to find the perfect ingredients for your fundraising efforts only to find the oven won’t bake up any success? looking for the perfect sous chef to nurture your recipe, only to realize the talent pipeline just isn’t there? are your campaigns, events, and auctions leaving you burnt?
In today's competitive landscape, finding and retaining top-tier fundraisers is tougher than achieving that perfect soufflé rise.
The statistics coming out of The Chronicle of Philanthropy (“Desperately Seeking Fundraisers,” November 2022) have shown a growing crisis in the fundraising sector. 48% of fundraisers say they are likely to leave their current organization and 28% say they are likely to leave the field entirely within the next two years. Because of this, 81% of Executive Directors say it is harder now to fill a fundraising vacancy than 2 years ago; sometimes taking 6 to 18 months to find someone with the necessary levels of experience. In addition, we know that the average tenure of a Development Director is only 16 to 18 months (NonprofitPRO), and the cost of losing a fundraising professional is 90% to 200% of their annual salary (The Chronicle of Philanthropy, “Calculating the Cost of Losing High-Performing Fundraisers,” June 2021). In a field where relationships are paramount, this fundraiser churn is leaving organizations feeling like their fundraising efforts are stuck in a half-baked state.
But fear not! Nurture and Grow is here to whisk away your fundraising worries and fill the gap left by a full-time individual giving director.
