Free Fundraising Webinar: Stewardship and Tax Effective Fundraising

Getting yourself clued up in relation to Tax-Efficient Giving can basically mean free money for your organisation.  Brilliant!  It might not sound like the most interesting subject, but it can make a real impact on your bottom line. 

In this informal seminar, we will think about relationships with donors and why good stewardship is so important.  There will some advice and tips on looking after your donors. We will look at what tax efficient giving really is and how it can sit within your fundraising activities and work for you.  

We will take a journey through the world of Gift Aid and see the difference it can make for your organisation, as well as exploring some other forms of tax efficient giving.

This will all lead us to the top of the donor pyramid - Legacies.  We will spend some time looking at legacy giving and hopefully you will come away with some food for thought and a few tips to get started on promoting legacy giving.
