Most nonprofits think “loyalty program” means points, perks, or tote bags. But that’s not what donors really want. They want belonging.

Plus, you’ll hear a real-world example of a nonprofit that tripled their donor retention by turning supporters into insiders. If you want donors who don’t just give once but stick around for years, this is the episode for you.
