May workshop: "How to Get Donors to Name You in Their Will or Estate" Â
Â
Every day donors give an average bequest gift of $100,000 – 249,999.
Are you missing out on this wave of generosity?
Fact:
• The average legacy gift is realized in as little as 1 to 4 years
• Legacy gifts are 200-300 times a donor's annual fund giving
• giving by legacy donors spikes 77% on average after they name you in their will.
It's time to leverage this opportunity with your donors. Meet your new fundraising gold mine: legacy gifts. Â
Whether you are new or an old hat, this workshop will give you everything you need to quickly secure a bountiful nest egg of donors naming you in their will or estate.
Why is this so critical now?
Reality check: your largest and most generous donor groups - the very backbone of your current fundraising will be passing on.
If you don’t secure bequests from them now, you’ll suffer a huge drop in revenue. This session will help you turn on the firehouse!

Who am I and why should you listen to me?
My name is Rachel Muir and I am just as passionate about making the world a better place as you are.
I’ve started and run my own nonprofit, raised over 10 million and was featured on Oprah, CNN and the Today show.
It took a lot of inspiration and a truck-load of guts to get to where I am today.
I have helped thousands of fundraisers land big gifts, delight their donors, and love their jobs…all because I use proven systems and methods. Because nobody wants theory!

You'll get so much out of every session and all the materials that Rachel provides. They're available for you to go back and review and use no matter what time of year. This is an investment I never let my Board try to cut from our budget!!

I appreciate how Rachel breaks concepts and tactics into manageable bits. I always feel like "oh, I can do this" after one of her workshops.
