Do you assume all your donors have been negatively impacted by COVID-19?

You will be summarizing your assigned section of The Nonprofit Answer Book. Here are the requirements for the post: Basic Board Functions
Include the session you were assigned to
Provide a summary of at least 1 paragraph (5 sentences) of the key takeaways of the article. Everything should be in YOUR OWN WORDS (since you are summarizing, you should not have to quote parts of the article)
If you use other sources in your summary, be sure to cite them properly
For the next part of the discussion I would like for you to answer these questions:
Considering the current pandemic, what are 2-3 budgetary items that may vary for a fundraising office? Explain why?
Assume you met your goal last fiscal year and now you’re approached by your supervisor regarding next year’s fundraising goals, what factors would make you increase/decrease your goal from the prior year based on the current pandemic? Do you assume all your donors have been negatively impacted by COVID-19? Are there are sources of potential fundraising dollars?
What are some of the challenges of telephone solicitation and why?
With direct, personal solicitation, what pieces of information would you want to know about your donor and how would you find them out? Be detailed.
