[PODCAST] Sustainable Giving: Opportunity, Risk, and What’s Next- Dave Raley

Sustainable Giving: Opportunity, Risk, and What’s Next

Monthly giving is exploding, but a lot of nonprofits are still treating recurring donors like a one time gift that repeats. We sit down with Dave Raley, founder of Imago Consulting and author of The Rise Of Sustainable Giving, to talk about what changes after the “big idea” phase and what it takes to build a mature sustainable giving program that donors actually trust.

If you want stronger donor retention, more predictable recurring revenue, and a healthier culture of generosity, you’ll get a clear next step from this conversation. Subscribe, share this with a fundraiser friend, and leave a review with your biggest question about monthly giving.
