The Donor Stewardship Move I’ll Never Skip—Now Yours, Free.

This isn’t theory—it’s one of my tried-and-true donor retention moves developed during nearly two decades of fundraising.

For years, I’ve used Thanksgiving cards to keep donors close, warm them up for year-end giving, and stand out from the flood of December appeals. It works.

And now, I’m handing you my strategy—for free.

While most nonprofits wait until the holidays hit full throttle, you’ll be first in the mailbox with a heartfelt, beautiful card that makes donors feel genuinely appreciated before you ask again.

​

Here’s what you’ll get:

• A warm, ready-to-use Thanksgiving card layout

• Flexible language you can tailor for your mission

• Examples for human services, arts & culture, and environmental orgs

• A design you can customize with your own photo & logo in minutes

• Other tips to make sure you get all the benefits of this strategy

It’s perfect for small teams, busy executive directors, and anyone who wants to keep donors giving—starting with gratitude that sticks long after the pumpkin pie is gone.
