INTRODUCTION
Stewardship is undeniably an
essential part of any development
effort, whether for annual fund,
capital, or planned giving support.
Good stewardship means sending
out an appropriate thank-you letter
immediately after receiving a gift.
“Thankfulness is the beginning of
gratitude. Gratitude is the
completion of thankfulness.
Thankfulness may consist merely of
words. Gratitude is shown in acts.”
— Henri Frederic Amiel, 19th century
philosopher and poet.

What are the specific needs that
you meet?
What impact are you making and
are you successful?
What are your priorities at this
time?
How will the funds raised be used?
How will the funds specifically
benefit those you serve?

STEWARDSHIP
In our 2010 survey, Dodging Tough
Times: How Stewardship Programs
Can Make all the Difference, 70% of
respondents indicated they have
different programs in place to thank
donors.
Donors are most frequently thanked
through mass distribution
approaches such as thank you
letters, reports and newsletters.
Major donors are thanked through
more personalized techniques such
a one-on-one meetings, special
events, and telephone calls from
the Board.

PLANNED GIVING

name applied to a program to inspire
donors to establish tax-wise gifts of
support through their financial and
estate plans.

found that those organizations that
reported a coordinated and active
communications plan in place during
the last recession reported little or no
impact in their fundraising programs.
