In Raleigh, North Carolina Terramor Homes does a BBQ in support of the Duke Children’s Hospital Radiothon. Selling cause marketing sponsorships… like selling radio or television airtime… means selling the intangible. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have inventory. Races have space on t-shirts and signs, telethons and radiothons have airtime, packaged goods products have packaging. Keep brainstorming and other cause marketing inventory will become plain.

Third Space Studio based in Durham, North Carolina collected and analyzed the survey while BC/DC Ideas , a Raleigh based communications firm for nonprofits, designed the report and infographic. Did you know that for small nonprofits, one out of every five dollars is raised online? And that about half of individual donor revenue comes from donors giving less than $1,000? In addition, small nonprofits retain about 60% of their donors from year to year – that’s astounding!
