LUNCHEON: The Annual Fund Isn’t Annual: How to Reinvigorate Your Annual Giving and Get Ready for Year-End
Every year we get more technology and a new way to raise money from individual donors for the annual fund. But are these techniques really worth it? What goes in to creating a solid, successful annual giving program, especially as year-end looms closer and closer? Let’s take a deep dive into what works, what doesn’t and the best ways to ensure a successful annual fund program. Because the best annual fund isn’t annual at all.
This session will look at current trends in annual giving, review the latest data on impact of direct mail, digital fundraising, giving days and major gift programs and present solid, best-practice techniques you can implement right now to ensure your year-end program succeeds.
