Major Donors Next Week
This popular training exercise helps charities realise additional funds fast. It is a very quick way of empowering staff, developing donors and making extra cash. It is a great preliminary exercise for any charity starting a major donor or capital campaign or for any charity where no direct ‘large’ asks have happened in the past six months.
On engagement one of our senior consultants, who are themselves fundraisers who have made big asks, will work with your charity contact to identify prospects, potential askers and define a case for support.
Major Donors Next Year
Nurturing and developing relationships through stewardship may include major donor events, project visits and more. This ‘classic’ programme builds upon the success of Major Donors Next Week, or any capital campaign, to use personal communications to look after and develop major donors to stay with you and donate even more for years to come.
In this programme, we work with charities to understand the seven stages of donor development, identify new prospects and create advocates. It is a more ‘tailor made’ collaboration depending on the charity’s current major donor programme.
Testimonial
Our major gifts team did a “major donors next week” session with the experts from Pareto Fundraising and that very day we secured a $10,000 gift from a lapsed donor who’d never given a gift of that size before. Their approach works. Try it!
