This week’s Leadership newsletter focuses on effective fundraising and philanthropic practices to make a better world. First, the Fundraising Effectiveness Project’s Ben Miller walks us through tools that can help put an organization’s fundraising in context. Next, surveys show that nonprofit advocacy is declining, even as the need for it grows. So, how can this gap be addressed? Then, the Institute for Nonprofit News’ NewsMatch program helps leverage fundraising and matching funds for local news. Finally, a call for a philanthropic strategy focused on building a more just society. 

In addition, we’d like to offer a call for pitches: Do you have a nonprofit or philanthropic leadership story to share? Email Leadership Editor Isaiah Thompson, at [email protected].
