New Study: Donations Decline for�Nonprofits - Online Fundraising, Advocacy, and Social Media -

New Study: Donations Decline for�Nonprofits - Online Fundraising, Advocacy, and Social Media -: Target's data this year was drawn from 80 different nonprofit organizations, 38 million donors, 79 million gifts and $2.5 billion worth of donations revenue (although it excluded any donations worth $10,000 or more). Channels covered included online, direct mail, telemarketing and canvassing.

"The Increase in Revenue Per Donor Is Still Not Compensating for the Declining Quantity of Donors," Paige told us is the headline from the survey.
