Call details
What we'd like to talk about
I'd like strategic advice on institutional donor stewardship, including stewarding foundation and corporate relationships with the goal of maintaining, and increasing gifts over time.
Additional context
Bresee has a strong portfolio of foundation and corporate donors, but gifts tend to stay at the same amount year after year, or even decrease over time. We want to do a better job engaging these donors to not only maintain relationships, but solicit larger gifts over time.
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.
