DONOR STEWARDSHIP

Build relationships that outlast any single gift.

THE REALITY

Donors don't leave because they stop caring...they leave because they feel forgotten.

Most donor attrition comes down to one thing: poor stewardship. The nonprofits that retain donors at high rates are the ones that invest in the relationship beyond the receipt.

19.4%
of first-time donors gave again, meaning 4 out of 5 never come back
7.5x
more expensive to acquire a new donor ($1.50/dollar) than retain one ($0.20/dollar)
69.2%
retention rate for repeat donors, proving that stewardship compounds over time
HOW DONORDOCK HELPS

Every donor deserves stewardship. Now every team can deliver it.

PERSONALIZED THANK-YOUS

Send the right thank-you at the right time, every time.

Automate personalized thank-you emails and tax receipts that go out within minutes of a gift. Use merge fields to make every message feel handwritten, even when your list has thousands of names.

THE SHIFT

From reactive thank-yous to proactive relationship building.

Old way

Ad Hoc Stewardship

  • Thank-you emails sent days or weeks after a gift
  • No record of who was called, emailed, or visited
  • Major donors treated the same as first-time givers
  • Stewardship plans that live in someone's head
  • Relationships lost when staff turns over
VS
New way

The DonorDock Way

  • Automated thank-yous sent within minutes of every gift
  • Full interaction history on every donor profile
  • Smart Nudges surface donors who need attention
  • Stewardship journeys run automatically based on giving level
  • Institutional knowledge preserved in the system, not in someone's memory
