Overview
Sending an end-of-year giving report, also known as an annual statement, is an excellent way to give your donors a complete summary of their past years' contributions and simultaneously thank them again for their support. It's also an opportunity to let them know how they have helped your mission, which is critical for donor retention and makes good sense.
