Major Gift Program Implementation
This offering is fit for an organization that might be wondering:
How do we transition out of our reliance on event-based fundraising?
How can I use my appeals as stewardship, educational pieces, or ways to identify new prospects rather than to fund our operational budget?
Can we effectively move the relationships we have to be more philanthropically engaged with us? Is there a way to engage new relationships meaningfully, too?
Is there a way to prioritize my time to be with those who are interested in making an investment in our mission / organization?
How do I make a solicitation that feels meaningful for the donor and is impactful for us?
Is there a more sustainable way to raise funds each year? Can I feel organized with this approach and have my team behind it, too?
All things point to a relationship-centered approach when it comes to raising money.
Our firm was founded on best practices in major gifts, and we have a library of tools to show for it. We work directly with gift officers and development professionals, CEOs and executive directors, and board members to implement processes that organize prospects from the top-down, teaching and guiding on how to secure visits, navigate discussions, cultivate intentionally, and make solicitations that will be impactful to the nonprofit and meaningful to the donor.
Our work with philanthropists has only strengthened our ability to help organizations understand what philanthropic investors care about and ensure that everyone's time is spent strategically to raise support sustainably. If you're in the camp of evolving out of your reliance on events-based or appeal-heavy fundraising, and you need motivation to take the step towards major gifts, you're not alone.
