This year we’ve published a number of posts that have included fundraising advice, tips for improving communication, how to improve storytelling and why improving donor stewardship is your best fundraising strategy. It has been a joy to write each and every one of these posts. But I especially want to thank you. I feel so incredibly grateful that Philanthropy for All has garnered a loyal and engaged audience, and each week it’s a thrill to read your emails and comments on the blog.
As a final ode to 2012, I’ve compiled the most read posts and a few resources as you make the final push for fundraising prior to midnight on December 31st.
