OVERVIEW
Stewardship is a process that involves letting donors know that their gifts are appreciated, showing them the impact of their support, and engaging them in the life of the institution. It’s especially important in annual giving, which is how the majority of donors will participate each year. Having sound stewardship programs for your annual fund will not only ensure a positive experience for donors today but will increase the likelihood that they will remain engaged and supportive in the future.
