If you search for “nonprofit email welcome series”, many of the top results will tell you that effective welcome emails use eye-catching subject lines, consistent sender names, or visual elements in your design.

  • Creating meaningful relationships that lead to lasting donors

During the course, you’ll discover tested and proven tactics that innovative nonprofits are using every day to better connect with their donors and unleash greater giving.
