There’s a reason major gifts get so much attention in the fundraising world – they’re the quickest path to a strong, diversified financial foundation. Discover how to cultivate lasting relationships that create a win-win for your cause and your donors.
Wondering where to find your strongest supporters? Chances are, you’ve already met them. They’re people in your donor base, just waiting to be cultivated. Our major gifts consultants will teach you how to build a culture of philanthropy that earns their lasting loyalty.
Understanding your donors’ passions and priorities is the key to unlocking the gifts that you dream about. With decades of experience in major gifts consulting, we’ll roll up our sleeves to help you understand what motivates your audience and identify their capacity for advancing your cause.
Our “new normal” has radically transformed major gift fundraising for nonprofits – but evolving to meet the moment doesn’t have to feel like such a struggle. The key is identifying where your organization’s priorities and your donors’ interests, beliefs and values overlap. We’ll review your donor list, teach you how to research each donor’s capacity and show you how to make effective, personalized asks, both face to face and over Zoom.
