I like your thinking! I can only share ...Hi, Lynne,<br />I like your thinking! I can only share that coming out of one of a comprehensive campaign, we worried about the drop in trustee giving in the annual fund. The chair of the development committee and I created the "10-10" campaign. We asked trustees for a two year pledge with 10% increases each of the two years. All came on board with pledges and we planned to use this stepped up giving on other audiences (alumni board, etc.). Just thinking of ways to recognize such a gift, I think a phone call would be appreciated coming from a (scripted) board member, encouraging their conversation as to the "why?" It could range from 1) I forgot what I gave last year.. 2)Got a new job 3) I read a tweet with great campus news and on and on. The tricky part is making it easy to get the report on that call from the trustee. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00651630410609135973noreply@blogger.com
