For nonprofits to benefit fully from the research organisations need the most up-to-date and relevant information. 2into3, as well as sector leaders, strongly encourage you to join the monitor for the benefit of the sector.
One subscribing organisation believes that “Boards and CEOs have a responsibility to ensure that fundraising investment is making an appropriate return for the organisation to fulfil its mission. Fundraising teams need to be providing comprehensive investment cases supported by strong fundraising data. Now more than ever we need to be working together to build trust in the sector and I believe this is an important tool for future sustainability.”
