Survey: Fundraising outlook darkens while offices go fully remote

Most nonprofit organizations have moved to a fully remote development office this week, according to results from a SurveyLab weekly tracking of fundraising offices during the COVID-19 pandemic. The outlook for fundraising has darkened week over week, with nearly all of the current week’s respondents predicting a very substantial impact to fundraising over the next 30 and 60 days. Beyond 60 days, respondents are reporting considerable uncertainty, with the pace of cancelations for events, donor visits, and solicitations increasing.

The full report includes detailed breakouts for each question in the survey, comparison tables by week and organization type, and extensive verbatim comments from participants that highlight creative ideas, status updates, concerns, and solutions from fundraisers around the world.
