Description:
Membership organizations face some unique challenges in encouraging increased giving from our donors. We often operate in competitive spaces and our donors’ affinities are often unclear.

Over 60 lively minutes we will examine how a great stewardship program can be used to build a more effective donor pipeline. In particular, we will look at crafting effective communications strategies, increasing engagement opportunities, and creating meaningful giving societies to boost retention and motivate increased support.

Drawing on a variety of case studies, this presentation is sure to provide you with some powerful new ideas.
