Donor Engagement HOWA is a small nonprofit with established community partnerships, presenting opportunities to implement or expand a donor relationship management system, improve grant management, and automate fundraising campaigns. A scalable CRM and integrated analytics could boost donor retention, major gifts, and grant funding across its service counties. This is a path to grow annual contributed revenue without materially increasing headcount.

Digital Marketing The organization already runs digital marketing tags and SEO tools, indicating openness to online audience growth. There is an opportunity to optimize website UX, conversion paths for referrals and inquiries, and privacy-safe analytics to demonstrate impact to funders and partners. A comprehensive content and SEO strategy, plus marketing technology enhancements, could raise awareness and inbound inquiries from potential donors and healthcare partners.

Inpatient Care Tech As the sole free standing hospice inpatient facility in the region, HOWA could benefit from patient care technology and facility management solutions to improve care coordination, bed utilization, and on-site operations. Solutions such as patient monitoring, telehealth for on-call clinicians, and EHR portal integrations could streamline workflows and elevate patient and family experience. Vendors with a focus on regulatory compliance and downtime resilience would be valuable partners.

Compliance and Security Joint Commission accreditation signals strong governance; however ongoing security and HIPAA compliance are critical in hospice operations. There is a window to partner on security assessments, policy development, staff training, disaster recovery planning, and data protection services to safeguard PHI across patient records, billing, and donor data.

Regional Partnerships HOWA covers multiple counties and participates in community and chamber networks, suggesting potential for expanded clinical referrals, education programs, and joint outreach with hospitals, clinics, and nursing facilities. A channel strategy that aligns with United Way, NHPCO and AHPCO relationships could unlock new funding streams, volunteer programs, and collaborative care initiatives.
