CCS Fundraising’s Post

How do you determine the right value for naming opportunities? We’re excited to share that CCS Senior Vice President Kristen (Kris) Kuhns and Executive Vice President Kurt McKinley were featured in The Major Gifts Report: Best Practices in Naming Gift Valuations by Megan Venzin, offering their insights on how fundraisers can rethink naming gift valuations to align with today’s realities. Their key takeaways: • There is no single formula for naming valuations—each market requires a tailored approach. • Go beyond numbers—understand the motivations and intrinsic value for donors. • Use predictive analytics to inform decisions, while studying your local donor base. • Keep naming gifts separate from lifetime giving to maximize future opportunities. • Limit the duration of naming rights—perpetual naming is becoming outdated. “At the core, it’s about honoring the donor in a way that is meaningful to them,” shares Kuhns.
