Fundraising Capacity can be Enhanced by Strengthening
the Organization's Annual Fund
We can help you get the most out of your individual,
corporate and
foundation prospects AND give your direct mail campaign a healthy boost as well.
Annual Fund Drives take planning, time and energy. Concentrating on asking
individuals, corporations and foundations for that annual operating support
will greatly increase the efficiency of the operation.
We can help you find the prospects who have the capacity and the motivation
to give.
We can help you devise strategies of approach for your prospects, and in
carrying out those strategies.
We can also work with your volunteers to train them in cultivation and solicitation
techniques, and, when necessary and advisable, we can accompany staff or
volunteers on prospect visits.
