The Future of Fundraising

The Future of Fundraising

Welcome to the Future of Fundraising.

As the fundraising conference season begins, my team and I are excited to learn about the successes your team earned in the last year and the challenges you’re working to overcome. We’ve been honored by an amazing response from leaders who want to meet at upcoming shows across the country.

I’m excited to share the breakthroughs that we’ve created here at Givzey in the last nine months to simplify your gift documentation processes so you can elevate the donor experience to new levels and book gifts faster, with more consistency.

This past week, we introduced two key innovations for the industry:

  • Givzey 2.0, which makes the Gift Agreement Platform a true end-to-end Digital Gift Agreement solution by adding Major Gifts into the fold.
  • LOI Gift Agreements, which elevate the donor experience while decreasing the time to close future gift intentions from DAFs and family foundations.

We hope to see you this conference season and can always be reached at hello@givzey.com.

Here’s what’s on my radar this week:

Givzey Revolutionizes the Donor Experience with New Letter of Intent (LOI) Gift Agreements

Givzey Revolutionizes the Donor Experience with New Letter of Intent (LOI) Gift Agreements

Givzey invented digital LOIs to ensure confirming and documenting multi-year and future gift intentions, whether stock DAFs, grants from family foundations, or otherwise are on-brand, donor-centric, personalized, and appropriate for the needs of fundraising today.

For example, according to the National Philanthropic Trust, DAF giving has increased by 400% in the last decade, amounting to $52.16 billion. However, documenting multi-year gifts that a donor intends to fulfill through DAF or family foundation grants is difficult. Neither can be booked as pledges. With their skyrocketing popularity, finding a solution to document DAF intentions that appeases both donors’ and nonprofits’ accounting needs is a priority.

Givzey’s digital LOIs ensure proper documentation in a first-of-its-kind fundraising solution that makes DAF giving warm and donor-centric, on-brand for organizations, personalized for fundraisers, and automated for advancement operations professionals. Best of all, with the average DAF grant at just $5k, Givzey’s digital LOIs scale to all levels of giving. (LEARN MORE)
