Network for Good Best Practice Coaching: A Practical Guide to Fundraising Storytelling That Drives Action

Facts inform donors. Stories move them.

This session gives you a practical, ethical storytelling framework you can apply across every channel — email, social, donation pages, and beyond — to raise more now and build the kind of donor relationships that last.

Here's what we'll explore together:

• Finding strong stories without burning out your team.
• Consent and dignity as design principles.
• A simple, repeatable narrative arc your whole team can use
• Before-and-after copy makeovers
• Practical ideas for improving opens, clicks, average gift, and second-gift rates

When donors understand the real difference they're making — in a person's words, not a program summary — they give more, give again, and stay connected to your mission. The story isn't a marketing add-on. It's the reason people choose you.
