annual appeal

Once-yearly donation request

An annual appeal is a yearly fundraising campaign, typically conducted by nonprofits, churches, or educational institutions to solicit donations from supporters: The university's annual appeal raised two million dollars.

These campaigns often occur at predictable times—year-end for tax purposes, or aligned with an organization's fiscal calendar.
