Workshop Date(s) & Time(s): 

• March 12, 2024, 1 pm - 3 pm EDT
• March 13, 2024, 1 pm - 3 pm EDT

This Workshop is Perfect for you if:

Do you know what happens to a donor once they make their 1st ever gift to your organization? When do you ask them to become a recurring donor? When do you upgrade them to mid-level, major gift or eventually a planned gift prospect?

By understanding the various steps that a donor takes on their journey to support your cause, you can engage and inspire them at a deeper level. With donor retention being so low, having a clear donor journey for your supporters is crucial.

Mapping the donor journey or experience is the process of designing, outlining, and charting the engagements, interactions, and activities of a donor. The map is an official outline, illustrating how a nonprofit can deepen the relationship with and value of a donor through a series of steps. Maps may vary in complexity, from a step chart following an online gift to a year-long engagement plan for potential donors.
