It's Be Kind to Humankind Week! ❤️ For those of us in the world of donor relations and stewardship, this week feels like it was made for us.

Our profession is built on kindness. Not just the polite, everyday kind, but the deep, intentional kindness that builds bridges and shows true gratitude.

It’s the handwritten note when an email would have been faster. ✍️ It’s the phone call "just because." 📞 It’s celebrating a donor's personal milestone. 🎉 It’s making sure every single supporter, at every level, knows they are valued.

These small, thoughtful actions are the most powerful tools we have. They turn a gift into a partnership and a donor into a lifelong friend of our cause. Let's give a shout-out to all the stewardship pros out there who make the world of philanthropy a kinder, more connected place. Your work matters so much!

Share one way you're spreading kindness to your donors (or colleagues!) this week!

🗣️ Voices of Experience: The Volunteers Behind ADRP’s Fundamentals Course

In this month’s issue of The Hub, Holden Scheidel, Ex Officio, ADRP Board of Directors and Co-Chair of the Education Committee, reflects on the multi-year, volunteer-led effort to create ADRP’s Fundamentals of Donor Relations course.

What started as a conversation at the 2022 Education Summit became a defining project for our field—crafted by a dedicated task force of ADRP members and subject matter experts who brought their time, talent, and diverse perspectives to the table.

💡 This course reflects the collective wisdom of the ADRP community and offers new and early-career professionals a clear, accessible foundation in gift acknowledgment, stewardship, donor recognition, and more.
