How do you thank your donors right now? A quick email? A printed letter? A note on your website?

Most nonprofits use words to say thank you. But here’s the problem—those words don’t always create a feeling. And feelings are what drive donors to give again.

In this episode of The Million Dollar Nonprofit, Tom Kelly shares how to create a 3-Minute Thank You Video that’s personal, heartfelt, and proven to increase repeat giving. You’ll learn a simple, three-step framework to help your donors feel truly seen and appreciated—without needing fancy equipment or a polished script.

You’ll discover how to:

• Open with warmth and authenticity
• Share a short impact story that brings your mission to life
• Close with genuine, personal gratitude that sticks

This is the fastest way to build real donor connection—and it works. You’ll hear a real example of a small nonprofit that used this approach and tripled their second-gift rate.
