No one wakes up every morning thinking about your organization. 🙈 But it’s the truth!!

And that’s exactly why you need to email more than feels comfortable.

Giving Signals Report found that while nonprofits have ramped up communication on social, donors are still asking for more.

Specifically? More email. 🤯

They’re not ignoring you. They just have a lot of noise to cut through. Which means that message you sent last week? A lot of them didn’t see it.

So when it feels like too much, that’s usually the signal to keep going. Check your unsubscribe rate for proof!

No keynote. No vendor hall. No lanyard.

Just a living room in Serenbe, Georgia and seven women who came and left with a plan they believe in and more confident in themselves to make it happen.

This is what The Monthly Giving Retreat looks like.

Not a conference. Not a workshop. A room where the real conversations happen, the ones you’d normally only have with your closest colleague over a glass of wine or poolside. 🍷 💦

We’re planning Spring 2027 and spots are intentionally limited.

👏👏 I LOVE presenting case studies like this: From less than $1k to $7k MRR in 12 months + a 97% retention rate + 27% of all giving is now recurring revenue. 👏👏

THAT’s a giving culture shift! ✨

And exactly what happened after a 1.5 Day VIP Intensive with .

They decided to lead with recurring because the mission deserves sustainable funding.

✅ Updated branding and copy
✅ Belief in the importance of recurring

Monthly Giving Builder back in ! 🗞️ The possibilities that has opened are limitless, just takes curiosity and determination.

What would have taken me multiple developers and thousands in investment, I build in 6 months with an AI coach and now have a dedicated .it expert to add new features and QA the product.

What will you build? 😉

90% of nonprofits are already using AI. Only 6-7% are seeing real returns.

That gap has consequences. For the communities nonprofits serve. For the people already on the margins who stand to fall further behind if the organizations closest to them don’t engage now.

The most important thing Justin Spelhaug said wasn’t about tools. It was about posture.

Demand for mission is up. Funding is constrained. AI won’t solve every problem — but it may be part of how the nonprofit sector finds another way, if leaders choose to engage now.

My conversation with Justin Spelhaug, President of Microsoft Elevate, is the first in a series from the Global Nonprofit Leaders Summit — where I sat down with nonprofit leaders to learn about the profound ways AI is already being used.

From accelerating ALS research to hyper-personalization for donor journeys.

I walked away in awe and so inspired about what’s possible.

“This AI revolution is about more inclusion. It is about human agency. It is about making us more human, not less human.” — Justin Spelhaug, President, Microsoft Elevate

Most nonprofits are built on a single-gift assumption.

A donor gives once. We celebrate! And monthly giving gets buried in checkout as a potential…maybe…”upgrade.”

But what if your default was monthly?

and I jump straight into this question on Missions to Movements.

Your donors already pay for 4...or 12 subscriptions without thinking twice. But, is your org still treating recurring giving like a bonus feature?

The data backs it up from the Fundraising Effectiveness Project with Data Commons: “At least half of all organizations in the panel acquired no new recurring donors at all in any given year.”

As Dave said, “Belief precedes growth.”

The leaders winning at monthly giving didn’t just run better campaigns. They made sustainers the first conversation of the year, not the last slide in the board deck.

You can’t bolt culture onto a checkout page.

So before you optimize your next sustainer ask, do you *believe* monthly giving is for your organization?

Because if you don’t believe it, no one else will.

Inside the ‘26 Monthly Giving Retreat a renewed sense of confidence was the common thread. ✨

Yes, we spoke about strategies and brainstormed ideas but THIS intimate setting provides the space for expansive and meaningful personal breakthroughs.

To expand the impact of nonprofit missions, WE, need to feel confident to believe in our own skills and ideas to grow.

Doors will open soon for next year. Stay tuned. ☺️

Top 5. Out of 3,000. I still can’t believe it. 🥳

I’m a Solopreneur 50 honoree!!

At the root of this recognition are all the nonprofits I get to serve every single day.

The organizations focused on monthly giving as a sustainable revenue strategy. The fundraisers building recurring donor programs from the ground up. This is for them. 👏

And in the words of ’s Hollywood Walk of Fame speech… “I want to thank me.” 😆

The 2017 me. Putting in 7am to 11pm days.

The risks. The curiosity. The refusal to think small.

The Monthly Giving Builder exists because I believe every nonprofit, no matter their size or budget – deserves a path to sustainable, recurring revenue. And today, with AI and the right tools, building something global entirely on your own is only limited by your imagination.

More monthly donors = more generosity in the world. Full stop. 🫶

To my family ( + Kennedy), Kat, my clients, mentors, fellow female solopreneurs, and everyone who has believed in Positive Equation, thank you for being part of this!

Next year is 10 years in business. This feels like the most perfect lead-up to what’s next.

Featured in today. Honored alongside the other recipients. Grateful beyond words.
