The Nonprofit Podcast Why Donor Retention Starts After - Not During - the Ask
Where do donor relationships go after the gift?
Donor retention is shaped by what carries the relationship forward over time.
When that continuity isn’t intentionally supported, donors don’t disengage all at once...they slowly lose their sense of connection.
In this episode, Jena Lynch unpacks how simple, repeatable structures, not more asks, help relationships hold between campaigns, especially for small teams.
Join Jena to discover:
- What fills the space between gifts and campaigns
- Why donor relationships drift without clear structure
- How consistency supports retention without adding more work
- Where intentional engagement replaces reactive communication
