So far this summer, we had meetings with 12 new potential partners, submitted/are actively working on 20 letters of inquiry or grant applications (six of which are collaborations with other partners), had numerous one-on-one conversations with individual donors and prospects and attended three large conferences/events.
Additionally, we have completely revamped our donor management process, and we are utilizing new digital tools to be more efficient and effective. It’s been invigorating.
