Understanding the difference between a ‘donation’ and a ‘gift’ and learning what motivates your prospective givers can be the first, key steps in creating a transformational major gifts programme and securing the funding that your organisation needs.

Why should you attend?
This session will focus on the importance of taking the time to build relationships with your donors in order that long-term giving can be secured. We’ll consider the implications of setting up a major gifts programme, the resources it will require, and understanding the various motivations for making significant gifts. This will be peppered with real life examples from a range of organisations that Gifted’s Directors have worked with throughout their careers.

Who should attend?
Any development professionals or governors.
