Do your appeals have a “big number” problem? Do you pitch out an appeal remarking about the millions of people who experience a problem? You’re making a mistake — here’s why. People have a hard time relating to big numbers. If you send an appeal that tells a story of 800 million people going to bed hungry tonight, the average donor doesn't believe his $50 is going to make a difference. What will $50 do to make a dent in this large of a problem? Instead, tell a story of one person the reader could help. The story helps the reader connect to someone he can see himself helping with his $50 donation. Use the big numbers to reinforce the donation decision. #fundraising

Giving in the USA has been a focal point in early December for many years now. It’s such a great opportunity to take the gratitude we just celebrated during Thanksgiving and turn it into action—through charitable giving and acts of kindness.   While inspired by the same spirit, Colorado Gives Day actually predates the National Day of Giving. It’s a special opportunity to focus our generosity on organizations that serve Colorado communities.   The post I’m sharing below is from Thrive - Transformation at Work, an organization I’ve been involved with for years. Instead of summarizing our mission here, I encourage you to explore the Thrive website and discover the incredible work we do.   What I can confidently share is why I’ve chosen to devote so much of my life to Thrive.   Thrive helps people in difficult, messy life situations regain dignity and hope. Through meaningful employment and career development, we empower individuals to rebuild their lives.   Thrive stands out because of our incredibly committed volunteer coaches. They walk alongside members, not just helping them find jobs but guiding them toward meaningful career paths. The relationships forged during these shared experiences often last well beyond the first job offer.   I began my journey with Thrive as a volunteer coach. I soon became involved in the Intentional Employer Network, a group that connects business leaders with a heart for providing opportunities to overlooked and marginalized individuals. Today, I’m honored to serve on the Board of Directors.   As Colorado Gives Day approaches, I have two asks:   1) Give generously to an organization that resonates with you. In a world filled with constant challenges, acts of mercy and kindness remind us that light always overcomes darkness. And that light has the power to transform lives, including our own.   2) Visit Thrive’s website. Read the inspiring stories of hope and transformation. Look for the story of a former member whose life was profoundly changed and who now serves as a key member of the Thrive staff.   Finally, if you feel drawn to Thrive’s mission, consider getting involved. That could mean supporting us financially, volunteering as a coach, or just spreading the word. Or maybe you know someone in a tough situation—someone who’s lost hope and could use help taking that first step. Thrive is here for them.   If you’ve gotten this far, thank you! I encourage you to take an easier next step: visit Thrive’s website, read our stories, and consider how you might partner with us in making a difference.
