Calling All Heroes announced that Innovator Mallory Erickson brought a first of its kind, free virtual learning experience to the company.

In Calling All Heroes: Combining the Best of Donor-Centered and Community-Centered Fundraising for Greater Impact, author Tammy Zonker presents a compelling exploration of the critical crossroads facing today’s nonprofit sector. Traditional fundraising methods are no longer enough to address the complex challenges confronting nonprofit organizations and the communities they serve. Zonker’s book honors both the generosity of donors and the wisdom of communities, guiding fundraisers, nonprofit leaders, and advocates toward common ground by uniting around shared values and embracing human-centered practices that empower communities and foster authentic connections. What sets this book apart is its practical approach. Rather than offering only theory, Zonker provides actionable strategies and real-life stories that show you how to bridge the gap between donor-centered and community-centered fundraising. You’ll learn how to cultivate a fundraising culture rooted in respect, empathy, and collaboration with all stakeholders. Whether you’re grappling with economic uncertainty, limited resources, or the constraints of outdated practices, this book offers a clear roadmap for transformation. Calling All Heroes is for fundraisers and leaders who recognize that the challenges we face are too great for any single hero to solve alone. Our greatest strength lies in working together, guided by shared values and a commitment to collective impact. By adopting a human-centered approach to fundraising, we can create a future where nonprofits thrive, missions are fully funded, and communities receive the support they need to flourish.
