Donor retention rate at {{company}}

Body

Hi {{first_name}},

Average nonprofit donor retention sits at 43%. Best-in-class is 70%+. The difference isn't fundraising spend — it's the 60-day window after a first donation, where most orgs send a tax receipt and then go silent for 11 months.

We help EDs build the second-touch moment that closes that retention gap. Cost a fraction of acquiring net-new donors.

If a 20-min call to discuss {{company}}'s retention numbers would be useful, happy to set it up.

Why this template works

  • BodyRetention vs acquisition

    Most nonprofit cold pitches focus on acquiring more donors. Reframing to retention speaks to the actual ED-level priority.
