Fixing the Hidden Leaks in Monthly Giving

Monthly giving is one of the most reliable ways to grow nonprofit revenue. But for many organizations, it’s underperforming...not because donors aren’t willing to give, but because revenue is quietly slipping through the cracks. Whether it’s failed payments, expired cards, disconnected systems, or missed opportunities for retention, it all adds up to lost revenue. 

In this session, CharityEngine and Easterseals will show where many monthly giving programs break down and how leading nonprofits are fixing those gaps. Through real-world examples from large-scale programs, they’ll demonstrate how small improvements in retention, collection rates, and donor experience can drive sustained revenue growth. 

Attendees will walk through practical examples, discuss common challenges, and leave with actionable steps they can immediately apply to strengthen their own monthly giving programs. 

Whether you’re launching, building, or optimizing your monthly giving program, you’ll leave with a clear path to making it a high-performing, scalable revenue stream.
