Happy International Coffee Day! ☕️ To all our fellow Donor Relations and Stewardship pros, we know your day is likely fueled by two things: a strong cup of coffee and an even stronger desire to make donors feel appreciated!

This year's theme is "Embracing Collaboration More Than Ever," and wow, does that hit home! Our best work happens when we team up. That "quick coffee chat" with a gift officer can spark the idea for a perfect stewardship touchpoint. That brainstorming session with the communications team is what turns a good impact report into a great one.

Stewardship isn't a solo sport; it's a team effort. It’s about linking arms with our colleagues in fundraising, finance, and programs to create a circle of gratitude around our donors.

Today, we're raising our mugs to our work-besties, our fundraising partners, and every colleague who helps us get the job done. You make our work—and our coffee breaks—so much better! Who are you grabbing a virtual or real coffee with this week to brainstorm and build relationships? Tag them below to say thanks! 👇
