 Integrated Major Donor Programme

Maximising your potential to raise major gifts

Our new Integrated Major Donor Programme is a series of training and consultancy modules designed to 
help any organisation, at any stage of a major donor programme, maximise their potential to raise funds 
from major gifts.

A tailored approach

We believe that there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution for Major Donor fundraising. Each organisation brings its own unique set of targets, competencies, resources and challenges, so our response to each is different.


Delivery

This programme is organised into seven stages, each of which can include elements of consultancy and elements of training and development. You can select modules from within each stage depending on the existing major donor expertise and experience within your organisation. For full details of the options available please download the brochure

Stage 1: A powerful case

Research and development of audience specific cases

Stage 2: Identifying prospects

Prospects, audits and analyses

Stage 3: Feasibility study and strategic plan

Feasibility study and the development of a strategic fundraising plan

Stage 4: Involving volunteers

Assessing volunteer competence and defining roles

Stage 5: Asking effectively 

Equipping staff and volunteers with the skills to make successful asks

Stage 6: Closing commitments

Giving staff and volunteers the skills to close asks and make appointments

Stage 7: Developing long-term relationships

Structuring effective thanks and recognition mechanisms

Expertise

This programme has been developed over five years by =mc’s team of international fundraising experts. Each
member of the team have a career in fundraising behind them, and have worked on campaigns of up to £1.25 billion, for organisations as diverse as universities and emergency relief agencies.

Investment

The investment for the programme varies according to the level of work needed. Our goal is to make you as self-sustaining as possible.

We've used the =mc team to help frame and resolve several major strategic issues for us at the Red Cross and the wider networks we're involved in. With them you can be sure of a mixture of clear and critical thinking – plus that essential added extra value of creativity.

Mark Astarita, Head of Fundraising, British Red Cross


=mc has a wealth and breadth of knowledge, a terrific understanding and vast experience of the ethos and culture of the not-for-profit sector. This together with their 'anything is possible' approach made =mc an obvious choice for the RNLI to partner with, to develop and deliver in-house training for our staff.
