Our Founder & CEO, Tanya Orr is incredibly proud to serve as an Ambassador for the Institute for Enterprise, Inc. ❤️

For more than 15 years, supporting and empowering young people has been a cause very close to her heart. That is one of the many reasons she is so proud to be connected to an organization whose mission aligns so closely with her own values.

The Institute for Enterprise, Inc (I4E) is doing incredible work to help young people identify and achieve their educational, business, and economic goals through entrepreneurship. By providing education, mentorship, financial support, and access to real-world business experience, I4E is helping young entrepreneurs turn ideas into opportunities.

What she loves most about this mission is that it goes beyond teaching entrepreneurship. It is about building confidence, encouraging possibility, creating opportunity, and empowering young people to believe in what they are capable of achieving.

Tanya is so honored to represent and support an organization that is not only investing in our youth, but helping to change trajectories and strengthen our communities in the process.

If you are not familiar with the Institute for Enterprise, we encourage you to learn more about their mission and the young entrepreneurs they serve. ❤️

📝 How to Make Donation Appeals… Appealing

➡️ Write at a 6th Grade Reading Level 🚌
If your donor needs a dictionary… you’ve already lost them.

Using words like “philanthropy”, “stakeholders”, or “capacity building” might make the reader come to a screeching halt to think deeply about the word you just wrote.

The heartfelt messaging and engaging momentum?

Boom.
Gone.
And there’s no going back.

Clear beats clever. Every single time.

➡️ Keep The Internal Lingo Internal 🤐
Nonprofits like to speak in acronyms. We’ve all done it.

Internally, it makes conversations easier, because we are all speaking the same language. What is the ADA at LGF for FY25? Huh? (There will only be a handful of folks that actually understand that.)

Be sure to steer clear from using internal jargon, it will only confuse donors.

➡️ How Many Appeals Are Too Many? ✌️
Essentially, you could send as many appeals as you want to.

Is that a good idea? Nope.

Friendly reminder: Donor fatigue is a thing.

My research shows that two (not three) is the magic number. ✨2️⃣✨

A summer/mid-year appeal and a holiday/end of year appeal are all you need.

➡️ The Most Important Word 🫵
YOU.

No explanation needed.

➡️ Include Visuals 📸
Adding photos of smiling kiddos or puppies and kittens, not only makes you smile back, but it helps tell the story.

An appeal is essentially storytelling. Just like social media posts, adding a visual gets a better response.

➡️ Don’t forget The QR Code 📲
I think we can all agree, nothing has experienced a greater come back than the QR Code.

If you’re not using this technology, (trust me) your competitors are. It’s 2026, my friends. Make it as easy as possible for folks to donate.

Bonus: Most QR Code subscriptions include keeping track of valuable analytics and data.

Clear, compelling, heartfelt storytelling = awesome impactful appeals 🤩
