Spring Series 2020 Part 2 – Stewarding Donors in the Digital/Not-so-Digital Age
In this session, Jess Nelson LeMay and Jessie Pridie of Mayo Clinic will talk about how they utilize digital tools as well as good old-fashioned stewardship techniques to keep their 5000+ legacy society members engaged and inspired. One member recently remarked “I believe that when charitable giving is personal, it comes from the heart and it carries with it a powerful message to others…. this is a place I believe in.” We hope to share some tips and techniques that have worked well for us to manage a large pool of donors in a programmatic way while still maintaining a long-term relationship that feels personal and inspiring.
