Best practices to boost end-of-year cause campaign results
The end-of-year giving season is upon us, spanning Thanksgiving to Giving Tuesday to New Year’s Day. The giving season is connected to holiday shopping, which will be worth $807 billion this year, with many shoppers ready and willing to donate to causes they care about.
