Donors today are understandably asking more of charitable nonprofits. With an emphasis on impact, donors want to know that their major gifts and planned gifts will have a desired change in society. How is your charity meeting this change?
This session will focus on the questions donors should pose to fundraisers when structuring major and planned giving including organizational continuity, gift designation for specific purposes, and measuring the benefits to those helped by your gifts. In the past, donors have been accustomed to giving to general funds; however, today, donors are better informed and educated about their rights. In addition, Sam will explore what to expect from charities after a gift is pledged or given with reference to stewardship and care of donors,
