Three weeks ago, I was in a serious bicycle accident that changed my perspective — not just on life, but on fundraising. When a friend from high school set up a Meal Train for my family, she made it crystal clear how people could help. If you lived nearby, you could drop off a meal. If you lived far away, you could send a DoorDash gift card. Simple. Specific. No guessing. Within hours, people responded generously. In this episode, I share why this is exactly how great fundraising works — and how an invitation from a mindset of abundance will always inspire more generosity than an obligation rooted in scarcity. You’ll learn three ways to make your next donor ask crystal clear, actionable, and easy to say “yes” to.
