Goals of Valley Gives 2017GOALS WHY?
Increase breadth of participation (number of donors) to expand philanthropy in the Pioneer Valley
To expand philanthropy, define success by breadth of participation rather than total dollars raised
Continue to attract high level of new participating donors who are also first time donors in a particular organization
New donors to an organization contributes to long-term sustainability
Increase number of Valley Gives donors who are under 40 years old. Among these under 40 year olds, donors should represent the diversity of the Pioneer Valley
Under 40 donors are the future of philanthropic giving
