What’s the Best Way to Say Thanks to Your Donors?

Donors give to non-profit organization because they want to make a difference.  The best way to show your gratitude for their generosity is not with certificates or plaques, but with tangible proof that their donations have helped the cause.  Personal stories describing specific successes are the best gifts a donor can receive and AmericanTowns is a great way to get those stories to your supporters.  It’s so easy to post a story to tell your donors how someone’s life was changed by a program they helped make possible.  You can post photos of the children your diabetes walk helped or the affordable homes you’ve built for less fortunate families.  Use our new Video Vault area to post the video of the animal shelter you helped fund or the mothers at your new domestic abuse shelter your donors helped furnish.

Keep showing your donors the wonderful results of their generosity and not only will they feel great about the donations they’ve given, they may just be with you for life.
