Securing the Gift: From Strategy to Commitment
The most successful year-end gifts are rarely the result of a single ask—they are the culmination of thoughtful strategy, intentional cultivation, and meaningful donor engagement throughout the year.
Join us for an insightful discussion on the relationship-building, stewardship, and solicitation strategies that help fundraisers position donors for significant year-end giving opportunities. Through practical examples and real-world experiences, our presenters will explore how to identify opportunities, strengthen donor connections, align philanthropic interests with organizational priorities, and confidently move donors toward a gift commitment before year-end.
Whether you are focused on annual giving, major gifts, or integrated fundraising strategies, you will leave with actionable ideas and proven approaches to help maximize donor engagement and secure year-end philanthropic investment.
Presenters:
Sue McCoy, Vice President, Development, Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation
Stacey Amyotte, Director, Annual & Personal Philanthropy, Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation
Please note: The AFP Edmonton & Area Chapter Annual General Meeting (AGM) will follow the session. We invite attendees to stay for the AGM and enjoy light refreshments while connecting with fellow fundraising professionals.
