For nonprofits, corporate giving can be a good news / bad news situation. For example:
💚 Corporations can support nonprofits with donations and sponsorships.
🛑 They are often seen as a "silver bullet" to solving fundraising problems.
💚 Corporations can be a fantastic source for volunteers.
🛑Nationally, corporate philanthropy is one of the smallest pieces of the giving landscape -- less than bequests, foundations, and individuals.
Building a strategy for corporate support requires thought and planning - and an understanding of how and why corporate partners support a nonprofit.
