The power of the Individual
Around 85 per cent of all voluntary giving comes from individuals, which makes one wonder why fundraisers spend so much effort chasing corporate and trust donors, doesn’t it? So, this is perhaps inevitably the biggest single area of fundraising excellence, innovation and inspiration. Individual giving itself divides into numerous specific areas, each of them important, some of them massively so – direct mail, telephone, major donors, inserts, committed giving, face-to-face, thanking donors, electronic/new media, off-the-page, television and door-drops.
