January Webinar - How Donor Retention and Major Gifts Can Transform Your Nonprofit 

Donor transiency is perhaps the single most catastrophic element in today's fundraising world. In this highly-anticipated webinar, John Greenhoe, CFRE, will examine the trend of donor attrition and provide helpful major-gift focused strategies to keep your benefactors. He will share personal experiences and examples from the philanthropy world that illustrate how thoughtful bond-building measures can lead to dramatic increases in donor retention, as well as transformational major and planned gifts.

Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, participants will:
  •     Understand how donor retention and major gift fundraising are intricately related.
  •     Be ready to use strategies that will both increase opportunities for major gifts, as well as favorably impact donor retention.
  •     Know how the effective use of donor discovery calls can lead to long-term fundraising success.
