University of Mary Washington's Beth Hunsinger describes why soliciting multi-year gifts from mid-level donors is not only a best fundraising practice, but also critical to growing the major gift pipeline: "We realized that we really had no place in the middle for folks who they gave at the $2,500 leadership level for annual giving. And then our major gift threshold is $25,000. And that's a big leap. So, we really wanted to focus on those mid-level donors as part of our multi-year pledge strategy, in order to develop the major gift donors of the future."

For some, March may be known as "March Madness". For the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance, the month of March is all about the contributions of women in the #nonprofit sector. Women make up 75% of jobs in the nonprofit, education, and philanthropic sectors, but women hold far less than 75% of leadership positions in these organizations. We strongly believe that these women must be represented fairly in the leadership of nonprofit organizations, paid equally for their work, and have a fair voice in the important work that nonprofits do.
