Legacy Futures

New blog for #LegacyFundraisers on maximising existing supporter relationships👉 https://lnkd.in/e7EvhYPi   As legacy fundraisers, we often focus on finding new supporters for gifts in wills. But did you know that around HALF of those who plan to leave a legacy never actually do? Growing legacy income could be closer than we think by focusing on retaining and deepening relationships with those who have already shown interest in supporting our cause through a gift in their #Will.   In her new guest blog for Remember A Charity, Dr Claire Routley shares strategies that could help you create long-lasting, impactful relationships, meeting supporters' needs at every stage of their legacy journey.    Read the blog now 👉https://lnkd.in/e7EvhYPi   #LegacyGiving #Fundraising #NonProfit #SupporterEngagement #Charity
