BDI

recap!

We hit the field again for another BDI softball day, and it reminded us of something simple:

We’re a team in every sense of the word.

From workdays to game days, it’s about showing up, supporting each other, and having a little fun along the way ⚾💙

Here's the reality. Giving is changing.

If you are seeing a shift in your donor base, you aren’t alone. We’ve been looking closely at the data from Rescue Missions across North America to see what is actually working right now.

Here is a snapshot of key takeaways from BDI’s 2026 Missions Benchmark Report:
✅ Donor value increased 7.15% year over year
✅ Reactivation is up 16.91% through targeted win-back programs
✅ Online giving is still growing, with revenue up nearly 10%

A closer look at how Portland Rescue Mission shows up for its community.

During a recent visit, BDI CEO MT connected with the team at Portland Rescue Mission including interim Executive Director/CEO Erin Holcomb, along with Shauna and Dallas on the Development team, gaining a deeper understanding of the work happening every day.

In a city facing real and visible need, Portland Rescue Mission continues to provide shelter, support and pathways forward with consistency and care. Their work is a steady presence in moments that need it most.

At BDI, we are grateful to stand alongside their team and support the impact they are making 🤝

Happy Easter from BDI!

Easter reminds us that hope is never out of reach. It is a season of redemption, renewal, and the promise of new beginnings.

For rescue missions and the people they serve, that message is deeply meaningful. Through compassion, generosity, and support, lives are being changed every day and new paths forward are made possible.

Together, those moments build toward lasting change. ♾️
