High-Net-Worth Individual Fundraising
Unlock larger gifts with a confident, proven approach.
This area often stalls because trustees and senior leaders feel uncomfortable or because conversations never progress into meaningful commitments. The solution is a clear approach that builds confidence and creates structure around cultivation and asks.
Patterns we often see
- Trustees won’t open networks (fear of discomfort or reputational risk)
- Conversations don’t progress to meaningful commitments
- Asks stay small because nobody knows what’s reasonable
- Stewardship is inconsistent, so donors drift
What we build
- A practical approach to identifying and cultivating HNWI support
- A simple stewardship rhythm that makes donors feel valued
- Clear messaging and asks aligned to donor motivations
- Optional trustee confidence support, including a 2-hour “What is fundraising?” session where helpful
- A clear approach that starts with confidence and structure, not a demand for contacts
Typical first 30 days
- Review of where major gift potential is most likely to sit (segments and networks)
- A simple cultivation approach and messaging framework
- The first set of “moves” (who to speak to, how, and what to ask)
- Optional trustee confidence session, if needed
Exact deliverables depend on your starting point, capacity and deadlines. We'll confirm scope after the discovery call.
