And specifically the tabs for "number of donors" and "average
donation" (the current year are they dark red lines). You will see that this year is
vastly more successful in terms of number of people participating in the fundraiser
Very interesting, thanks for posting that.
Maybe what I'm also feeling here is an uneasiness I get whenever
someone (particularly corporations) take credit for "raising money" or
being "good fundraisers". Credit should always go to the people who
pay the money. According to those graphs, each day more than 10,000
people have made a donation, averaging close to $30. That's amazing.
