For nonprofits, getting donations shouldn’t be about asking for cash Asking people for money, whether they’re friends or strangers, can be incredibly daunting. It’s intimidating to ask people to hand over their hard earned dough for your cause. The less painful, more effective way to collect donations is by indirectly asking for contributions. The heart of fundraising is to help others connect a passion or memory with a cause. It’s about making your cause theirs. Here’s how you can lead them there: Tell your story
Ask for advice
