The Nonprofit Advisory Board Presents: Your Rapid Response Toolkit

2025 has felt like one long rapid response for many organizations and a crash course in rapid response for others. From international crises to domestic emergencies and responses to the current administration, nonprofits across the sector have seemed to go from one major challenge to the next without a break. Rapid response moments can be key to getting in front of your donors and prospective supporters – and raising more to help propel your mission in moments of crisis. They are a powerful call to shift your messaging, even when they strike during a tentpole or major fundraising moment for your organization.

That’s why, as MissionWired’s Nonprofit Advisory Board, we came together to create a toolkit to help other fundraisers not only respond quickly in these moments but also prioritize and pivot meaningfully. You can learn from the experiences of organizations well-versed in emergency response like Project HOPE, ACLU, NPR, Planned Parenthood, and Sandy Hook Promise, and apply those lessons to organizations operating at any scale.
