AFP Space Coast Chapter Meeting
Stewardship: Beyond the Basics
Presented by Karen Revels, Senior Manager of Philanthropy
Rollins Edyth Bush Institute
We all know that it is important to say thank you. Research has shown that it is far less expensive for an organization to retain a donor than it is to find a new one. Saying thank you well and often is the difference between a thriving, sustainable fundraising program built on a solid base of individual donors and one that struggles to reach its annual fundraising goals.
Join us as we discuss practical strategies to help your organization raise more money by keeping the donors you already have.
