    How Do You Choose a Fundraising Agency?

    Ask for results on programmes like yours, insist on seeing the numbers behind them, and find out who will actually do the work. Check that pricing is published, that strategy and assets stay yours, and that reporting happens monthly in plain language. Fit matters more than size or channel specialism.

    How Do You Start Planned Giving?

    Start with the donors you already have. Long tenure and modest repeat gifts predict bequests better than wealth screening. Add a legacy question to your surveys and reply cards, publish simple bequest language on your website, and follow up personally with anyone who indicates interest. The programme costs time before it costs money.
