Rarely online these days, big-hearted friends. Much prefer cheering you on and celebrating your do-gooding wins from the offline sidelines instead. 🙌🏼

For no other reason but to make you smile, I give you this adorable (and seriously photogenic) baby sloth.

@NonprofitAF @HigherHeights for sure!

@JTCHANGINGBIZ @Markyphillips On a scale of 1 to 10, I can’t even. 🤦🏻‍♀️

You know that frustrating, OMGRRR!!feeling you get when you reset your password and the robot says “you can’t use that one because you’ve used it a gazillion times already”?That’s how donors feel when they get your basically the same thank you letter for the umpteenth time too.

@JuliaCSocial @TomAndersen Hi, Tom! So nice to meet you again on the mobile Interwebs!! 👋🏼

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

Zhushed up an appeal for a fave nonprofit today, and when I sent it back, I reminded the fundraising team that conversational is the new professional. Don't get me wrong, formal writing has its place. Buuuut, relatability wins the day when donor connection is where we play.

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

This is more a reminder for me, but if you’re feeling the same, then it’s absolutely for you too.

I've spent hours every day this week writing and recording mini gratitude messages to donors for multiple nonprofits. Do I cut and paste? No. Do I recycle content? No. Do I give the same amount of love and thought to every darn one? Yes. Donors aren't herds, they're hearts.

@tclaybuck @sarahlundberg @StevenShattuck @colludos Oh, I understand, Clay. My heart eyes get Tom and Jerry big whenever Mark Harmon walks across a screen.

listening to @Markyphillips chat with @ShanonDoolittle talk about his latest #COVID19 #coronavirus donor research - the number 1 thing they are hearing is donors are saying they aren’t being asked. At all. :|

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

@tclaybuck @AllenDavidov Feel free to invite a lady next time! I'd LOVE to join that convo. Also, thanks for all you do to make this world a better place, gentlemen. You're all that and @tclaybuck hoodie.❤️

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

Ladies, gents, fantastical human beans...today's the day! Our beloved @johnhaydon's wonderfully wonderful book on donor care is out. If you knew John, you knew how much he cared about people and he pours that love into this book on donors. Snag it now! https://t.co/AbAWvL8EyF

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

@Markyphillips @IanMacQuillin @ThirdSector @RogareFTT @RebeccaKCooney Oh, to be a fly in your inboxes, gentlemen...

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

My world, our world, is forever changed. You are loved, you are light, and you are legendary, @johnhaydon. Thank you for being everything right and good in this world. Rest easy, my beautiful friend.

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

@marcapitman @seattledrury Beyond bummed Mike and I missed you, Marc. The good news is you had zero chance of getting the flu, shingles, or the coronavirus (kidding on that last one) from our fam. So glad you got to see Chris, Peter and other gems though!

[Shanon Doolittle @ShanonDoolittle]

@tclaybuck Congrats on going solo, fantabulous friend! Super excited for yoooouu. 🙌🏼
