Annual Fund

Annual Giving Strategies

The annual Giving Campaign is the life blood of any non-profit.  The key to moving forward is to enhance current activities but also create new annual income streams.

OnTrack Financial Education and Counseling

MN-PS believes each agency should have the following:

• Regular solicitation schedule by mail/phone/email at least three times per year.
• Special holiday giving program.
• Two major fundraising events per year
  • A signature event that emphasizes major donors.
  • A “low entry fee” event that may be participatory in nature but mission-centered and open to all.
• Numerous “friend raising” events and activities.
• Regular training for Board Members leading to fundraising or friend raising by all.
