Prioritizing High-Impact Strategies to Secure Your Greatest Success


Major and planned gifts are the lifeblood of your organization. Whether or not you succeed in securing a major gift will depend upon who asks for it; for what are you asking; how much are you asking for; where are you asking; and when will you ask. These are the key strategic decisions you must make.

Our program remains focused on these major gift strategies. We include time each day for small group interaction, panel discussions, and one-on-one opportunities with our faculty.

Our purpose is to bring additional depth, understanding, and recommendations to your organization.
