Emergent Fundraising

1. What we do.
Major Gift fundraising is often seen as too hard, too much trouble, too risky, not enough income, or too much out of your comfort zone. ‘But I don't know any rich people!?’, ‘They just don’t understand.....!’ (or worse, ‘They don't care!’)

Wrong.

Major Gift fundraising is the most rewarding form of fundraising for the charity (highest ROI on any other income stream) and also for the donor as he/she embarks on an emotional and inclusive journey, with the charity, with the cause, with you.

We want to help you help the planet. It’s that simple.

Working directly with fundraising staff and/or senior staff and the board 1 on 1 in a mentoring capacity or providing short intensive workshops, I aim to provide strong skills in the following areas:

1. Prospect identification and Research
2. Introductions and Cultivation
3. Development of a Case for Support
4. Major Donor Events
5. Making the Ask
6. Acknowledging the gift
7. Donor Clubs and other recognition programs
8. Bequests
9. Board engagement
