(December 6, 2019) As fundraisers, we work so hard to secure gifts and then
forget that our donors deserve much more than just thank-you letters. In this
interactive session, participants will see real examples of ways to say thanks
all year long through cards, pictures, notes, and other cost-effective yet much
appreciated ways. After all, have you ever had a donor say, "Will you stop
thanking me?
