Major donor fundraising – a new income stream?

Description

  • Is developing major donor fundraising on your radar but you’re not sure where to start?
  • Do you want to start a major donor programme, as pressure on other income streams increases?
  • Do you want to make the switch from “ a few major donors” to a proactive major donor programme?


Major donor fundraising is an incredible opportunity for many charities but often misunderstood. Join major donor specialist Louise Morris, of Summit Fundraising, to learn how to make the most of this opportunity at your charity and have confidence to take the next steps.

Louise Morris is a major donor specialist and founder of Summit Fundraising who has helped over 100 charities raise more large gifts. She has over 15 years' experience in major gifts fundraising at charities of all sizes and cause areas, after starting her career in sales and marketing at Unilever. She is a former Fundraising Director, a current trustee, and regularly interviews philanthropists on their giving experiences. She has a distinction in the Certificate of Philanthropic Psychology from the Institute of Sustainable Philanthropy.

She coaches fundraisers and charity CEOs, trains trustees, fundraising and non-fundraising teams, and provides practical consultancy so charities can successfully set up and improve their major donor fundraising.

What will this course cover?

  • The building blocks you need to start successful major donor fundraising
  • Where to find these “wealthy people”
  • Get into philanthropists’ shoes – the psychology of giving
