Nonprofit Mission Statements: 5 Reasons to Care

Square One. 

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to state your mission.

 Yes, you read that right. 

It’s often tempting just to jump straight into the streets of your community and start helping people. That heart of service is why you’re in the nonprofit world in the first place. 

But before you can effectively do good in the world, land the funding or entice the volunteers, you must know unequivocally who you are. 

The cart is the mission, the horse is the mission statement. And as they say, never put the cart before the horse. 

Below are five things your mission statement should provide, both internally and externally, before you take on the world. 

The Horse.

  1. Purpose

  • This is your “why”. It will serve as your launching pad, your compass. Once you know what your role is, you will know what projects to say “yes” to and what projects to say “no” to. You can discern which partners are a good fit for you. A clear purpose will stretch you out of your comfort zone, but not stretch you too thin.  
  1. Brand Voice

  • Chances are yours is not the only organization working on a particular issue. What makes you unique? What do you bring to the table that no one else does? Your mission statement should answer these questions. If it does, this becomes a powerful communications tool that can help you garner financial and volunteer support. You are an irreplaceable solution to a problem that must be solved. 
  1. Values 

  • A well-written mission statement will leave no question as to what your organization thinks is important. This clarity will help those inside your nonprofit work toward the same things for the same reasons. It will also help those outside your nonprofit know exactly what they’re getting when they encounter you.
  1. Inspiration 

  • Action-oriented. Your nonprofit exists to make a difference, to make a change. Your mission statement should reflect a call to action and an anticipated result. It should be memorable and moving. 
  1. Unity

  • When the individuals that comprise a nonprofit understand the why, what makes them unique, the guiding values and the action items, a true team environment is created. And we all know that teamwork makes the dream work. 

The Cart. 

Once you craft your mission statement, you are freer than ever before to unleash your nonprofit’s full potential. You now have a voice that will stand out from the rest, and a road map to stay on course. 

So, saddle up and ride on!

Even if donors don’t have the time to fill out their matching gift request directly after they give, they’ll be reminded via 360MatchPro’s automated email streams. This way, all match eligible donors are given multiple touchpoints to get their gift matched!

VolunteerLocal Chooses Double the Donation for Integrated Volunteer Grant Solution

Double the Donation is proud to debut its integrated partnership with VolunteerLocal, one of the most powerful volunteer management platforms. This duo has come together to offer 360MatchPro to nonprofits, event planners and volunteer coordinators of all types through its seamless integration.

“Our volunteer grant integration with 360MatchPro will take the mystery out of volunteer grant submissions,” said Brian Hemesath, Founder of VolunteerLocal. “Volunteer coordinators can expect a simple way to contact eligible supporters and encourage them to submit their grants – leading to more funds for qualifying organizations.”

Through this new and innovative solution, organizations can now use 360MatchPro to identify volunteer grant-eligible supporters and guide them to their employer’s volunteer grant guidelines and submission steps directly after a volunteer shift. This technology helps organizations take advantage of corporate volunteer grant programs, which are offered by 40% of Fortune 500 companies.

“VolunteerLocal offers a range of features that are essential to an effective volunteer management strategy, and we are so excited to add volunteer grant outreach to their platform.” said Adam Weinger, President of Double the Donation. “This robust solution will help organizations everywhere take advantage of corporate volunteer grant opportunities.”

While volunteer grant opportunities are significant, many organizations miss out on these funds because of a lack of donor awareness and outreach. This solution can now educate supporters and help organizations take advantage of this revenue stream.

“Our organization is so excited to integrate 360MatchPro with our VolunteerLocal account,” said Lin Lu, Web Developer at AnitaB.org. “We now have a simple way to tailor volunteer grant outreach to eligible supporters. This valuable integration will help us raise more without any extra effort.”

With around 63 million Americans volunteering each year, the value of volunteerism is worth an estimated $175 billion annually. Using 360MatchPro and VolunteerLocal, organizations can educate their supporters and guide them to submit a volunteer grant application.

The 360MatchPro and VolunteerLocal integration process is simple, allowing your organization to quickly enhance your volunteer grant fundraising initiatives. To get started, just enter your API keys within your VolunteerLocal account to activate the integration, and then add the 360MatchPro search field to your event or application forms.

This process allows your volunteers to enter their employer information as they sign up for a volunteer shift. The search tool provides suggestions as the user types, ensuring the volunteer enters their correct employer. This tool even takes spelling errors, parent companies, and subsidiary companies into account. 360MatchPro then automatically checks to see if this volunteer could be eligible for a volunteer grant through their employer’s corporate philanthropy program. This means your supporters can identify themselves as volunteer grant-eligible simply by entering employment information during their natural sign up process.

Five Ways to Make Sure You Don’t Leave Money on the Table with Your Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Campaigns

by Mark Becker, Founding Partner, Cathexis Partners

When you’re running peer-to-peer fundraising campaigns, you might tend to focus on planning, recruiting and coaching participants, and tracking results. But consider this: There are some simple yet highly effective ways to boost your funds raised that you might have overlooked.

Here are five things you can do today to make sure your peer-to-peer campaigns and events don’t leave money on the table:

  1. Ask donors to cover transaction fees.
    When someone makes a donation to your organization through your peer-to-peer participants’ pages or your other donation forms, you’re typically charged a transaction fee by your payment processor. This effectively reduces each donation by some percentage (often around 3%). But, you don’t have to settle for that.By providing an option on your online donation form for donors to cover the cost of transaction fees, you can capture those lost dollars.
    Here’s an example: Cathexis Partners helped Arizona Humane Society add an option to their Luminate Onlinepowered donation form for donors to cover the transaction fee on their donations. The result: In three months, the organization received a total of $2,000 that previously would have been lost to transaction fees.
  2. Add a monthly giving pop-up.
    When donors make an online donation to your organization, present them with the option to make it a recurring gift with the convenience of monthly payments charged automatically to their credit card. This approach encourages donors to remain donors and give more over time. In fact, research suggests that recurring donors who give on a monthly basis donate 440% more to charity over their lifetime than one-time donors.
  3. Review sustaining gift credit card expirations. 
    Once donors sign up as sustaining donors, they don’t always remember to send you an update when their credit cards are expiring. This leads to declined transactions, leaving it up to you to follow up with donors to update their information — possibly missing out on months of sustaining gift donations in the process.
    Here are some approaches for proactively reviewing sustaining gift credit card expirations so you don’t miss out on those donations:

    • Set up a monthly recurring email campaign to automatically send sustaining donors a reminder that their credit cards will expire soon.
    • Remind your sustaining donors via email as many as 60 to 90 days before their credit cards are set to expire to give them time to update their credit card information.
    • Set up a portal so that sustaining donors can log in and view/update their sustaining gift information and details.
    • Use a credit card updating service that automatically updates sustaining donors’ credit card renewal dates.
  4. Embed a matching gift tool in your donation form. 
    Adding a corporate matching tool to your peer-to-peer fundraising donation forms helps your peer-to-peer fundraising participants maximize their fundraising and their impact. This, in turn, means more dollars for your mission. Everyone wins.

    Companies like Double the Donation make it simple to embed their matching gift tool on web pages and donation forms. 360MatchPro by Double the Donation is a matching gift software solution that can automate the entire matching gift process on your organization’s behalf. Working with a matching gift service like this makes it much easier for your donors to seek matching gifts and for your nonprofit to track expected gift matches.
  5. Use Google Ad Grants. 
    Google Ad Grants offers eligible nonprofits $10,000 per month of in-kind Google Ads advertising to promote their missions on Google search result pages. This offers a tremendous opportunity for you to promote your nonprofit’s mission, programs, and fundraising campaigns.

    Read The Nonprofit’s Introductory Guide to Google Ad Grants to get started. Also, consider getting expert help in setting up and optimizing your Google Ad Grants. Cathexis Partners offers affordable services to get you going, make sure you maintain eligibility, and optimize your use of the grant.

Many tools will support these techniques. If you have questions or would like help setting up these approaches for your organization, contact Cathexis Partners.
