In March 2003 The Chronicle for Philanthropy reported a sea change in fund development. After 25 years of consistent research on donor motivation, a study came out with new information. Donors ranked on a scale of 1-10 what mattered most to them when considering giving. Until now, most donors reported that a belief in the mission of the organization and the desire to have an impact on the people served was their number one motivation. Certainly gratitude for life-saving or life-changing service made that belief in mission and impact that much more powerful as a motivation. Improving their community was consistently the number two reason for giving. But, according to the 2003 survey, something changed. Six of the 10 reasons involve stewardship and accountability. |
