The Giving USA 2012 Annual Report estimates that US charitable giving rose 4% in 2011 to a staggering $298.42 billion. The US Fundraising Market is nothing if not filled with potential!
How can your international nonprofit get its piece of the fundraising pie? The opportunity for major success is huge, but the competition is nothing to take lightly; there are nearly 1.5 million nonprofits already in the US. In order to be successful your organization needs to lay the groundwork for a solid fundraising infrastructure, create a fundraising plan, and build relationships that will last through the donor cultivation cycle. Want to learn how? Download ConceptLink’s Quick Concept from our resources page to learn the Three Essential Steps for International Nonprofit Fundraising in the US.
Plus, stay tuned for Part II in 2013, where we’ll walk you through the fiscal sponsorship process so your organization can obtain tax-deductible funds from US sources.
Our resources page is a brand new feature on the ConceptLink website. Every quarter, we’ll be publishing a Quick Concept – a document that takes a deep dive into areas of interest for international and domestic nonprofits alike. We’d love your feedback, plus your suggestions on any topics you’d like us to cover in future publications. (Hint: the previous 2 Quick Concepts on Event Planning and Volunteer Management have been uploaded, too!) Enjoy!
