Overview
Community Care Foundation, a Nonprofit company with a 6-person development team, faced a critical challenge: Donor retention after first gift was 35%. No structured follow-up or impact communication.
The Challenge
The core challenge was clear: donor retention after first gift was 35%. no structured follow-up or impact communication.. For a team of 6-person development team, this meant bottlenecks in their GTM motion and limited visibility into what was actually working. Traditional approaches weren't cutting it.
The Solution
Community Care Foundation turned to Mir Tech to implement donor journey mapping + impact campaigns. The implementation was completed in May-Dec 2024, focusing first on quick wins. Rather than attempting a full transformation immediately, they started with their most critical bottleneck and expanded from there. This phased approach ensured adoption and built momentum.
Key feature used:
Donor journey mapping + impact campaigns
Results
The results spoke for themselves: 62% first-year retention (from 35%), and 2.8x repeat donor lifetime value, and $2.1M incremental annual donations. Within six months, Community Care Foundation had completely transformed their Nonprofit approach.
Retention jumped to 62%. Repeat donors now give 2.8x more annually. We reduced acquisition focus and scaled retention."
