Nonprofits often use donor-centric strategies to highlight their real-world impact and raise awareness for their cause. In truth, the value of a nonprofit is measured in impact, not in dollars. For example, nonprofits providing transparent data showing real numbers builds trust and creates urgency among their supporters, which increases donations. Because of this, donor-centric management is a nonprofit trend that is sure to carry over into 2025.
