Nobody said year-end fundraising would be easy. And since no two organizations are exactly the same, we all experience different challenges and successes .

But we can all agree on one thing—year-end giving is extremely important to the success of your organization. Of those polled as part of the Nonprofit Insiders Network, 28 percent said that they raised between 26 and 50 percent of their total annual income from the year-end ask alone. Plus, 100 percent polled used direct mail for their year-end campaign and only 17 percent used in-person asking to garner donations.
