The Future of Fundraising

Welcome to the Future of Fundraising.

It has been exhilarating to meet so many of you as my team and I have been on the road for conferences this season. If you are at CASE District III this week in Orlando, please stop in to say hello.

What’s been refreshing about being on the road is that so many fundraising leaders, who are otherwise unconnected, are sharing common ideas and challenges. One that’s particularly interesting is around elevating donor experiences. In my conversations, it’s clear that many see a direct correlation between meaningful donor experience upgrades and increased giving revenue.

If this resonates with you, I encourage you to review Givzey’s updated 2024 Multi-Year Giving Playbook, which helps to make the connection between multi-year giving and elevating the donor experience.

Here’s what’s on my radar this week:

The 2024 Multi-Year Giving Playbook for Fundraising Leaders

Last year, Givzey published its first volume of the Multi-Year Giving Playbook for Fundraising Leaders. Less than six months – and thousands of downloads – later, Givzey is back with a refreshed playbook that offers a new perspective on how leaders can apply multi-year giving strategies to donors at all levels of giving to grow the pipeline through sustainable, predictable, and donor-centric practices.

The 2024 Multi-Year Giving Playbook for Fundraising Leaders includes the following new chapters and updates:

• Measuring Results & What Metrics to Track
• New Solutions & Technology to Try
• More Use Cases
• More Multi-Year Giving Opportunities
• More Commentary

[WEBINAR] Growing Giving & Eliminating Bottlenecks for Fundraisers and Advancement Services with William & Mary

Thursday, February 15 at 2:00 PM ET

Do you have a single person who writes your LOIs for an entire team? Or, a single office responsible for supporting many campuses or units?

These common issues create bottlenecks and heavy workloads that end up limiting your ability to grow fundraising programs.

Join William & Mary's Associate Vice President for Annual Giving & Philanthropic Engagement, Meghan Palombo, to learn show she's scaling fundraising programs by addressing these bottlenecks in the typical fundraising process.

In this webinar, you'll see how you can move from single resources for entire teams to individual resources for everyone - taking handcuffs off of gift officers and advancement services alike and speeding the time it takes to close gifts.
