25 years ago, September 11 changed our nation forever. But in the weeks following that tragedy that marked our nation—and in the 25 years since—we have seen Americans come together with compassion, generosity and a commitment to serving one another.

Today, we remember those whose lives were lost and honor those who carry that spirit forward by showing up, serving others and being here for good.

Being Here for Good means showing up for and with our nonprofit community. Last week, David Chatham spent time with nonprofit leaders at the AFP NC Philanthropy Conference in Charlotte. We had a blast and were excited to see a few familiar faces, too!

Isn't she lovely?! 🎶

Last weekend, our sweet Ale married the love of her life, Rodrigo! The team showed up to celebrate and dance the night away with the new couple, and we're so excited to officially welcome Rodrigo to the Angel Oak Creative family.

We love you both!

September marks the start of National Recovery Month, and we're here to spotlight the good that several of our clients are doing in the recovery space!

First up, Wake Monarch Academy offers the Triangle's only recovery high school, providing a safe space through their Academy and after-school programming so that teens don't have to choose between their health and their education.

Next, Healing Transitions has been a powerhouse in the recovery community for decades, and we've loved being a small part of their journey. They recently celebrated the completion of their men's campus expansion and renovation, made possible by their Recovery Can't Wait Capital Campaign! We also can't wait to see how they'll continue to impact this community.

Head to wakemonarch.org and healing-transitions.org to learn how you can support these two amazing organizations and their efforts this September and beyond!

Before you send your year-end appeal, read it one more time.

How many times do you say we, our, or us?

Now count you and your.

A simple shift toward donor-centered language can help supporters see the role they play in your mission. It's a small edit with a big impact.

Your year-end appeal can be beautifully written, but if your website creates friction, donors may never reach the finish line.

Before your campaign launches, spend five minutes walking through your own giving experience.

Can someone find your Donate button quickly? Does your form work on mobile? Can a first-time visitor understand your mission in just a few seconds?

The best campaigns don't just inspire action, they make it easy to take the next step.

The nonprofits with the strongest year-end campaigns aren't necessarily working harder; they're communicating smarter.

One of the simplest ways to improve your results? Stop sending the same email to everyone.

Your recurring donor, first-time donor, and lapsed donor each have a different relationship with your mission. Before your first appeal goes out, take time to segment your audience. A more relevant message is almost always a more effective one.

Before you write off your lapsed donors, watch this!

As year-end fundraising gets closer, it's worth taking another look at the supporters who haven't given recently. In this clip, Kimberly Burrows, Executive Director of Inter-Faith Food Shuttle, shares why looking back further than you think—and tailoring your message—can help re-engage donors who still believe in your mission.

A simple reminder that the right message can go a long way.
