Funraise CEO and Co-founder Justin Wheeler and Fundraising Consultant Rhea Wong are revealing the first thing to focus on as you build your organization's donor program (hint: love the one you're with). Rhea is a fundraising veteran, author, and nonprofit coach of the Big Ask Gifts Program for major gift fundraisers. Her energy and perspective will nourish your donor relationships and quench their thirst for meaningful engagement. As Rhea says, "...as humans we are hungry more than ever for connection. The human need, desire, hunger to belong and be part of a tribe has not gone away; in fact, it's more acute than it's ever been. And therein lies the opportunity for your major gift fundraiser." Feed your donors' hunger for connection with this recipe for giving.

By pulling together wealth, biographic, and charitable giving data from dozens of public sources—including a massive database of recent donations—Funraise puts donor prospecting power in each profile, giving you granular insights at a level unique to Funraise's donor CRM. "Being able to show where [donors'] affinity lies when they're making gifts is really one of the things that sets iwave apart from other solutions in the space—the ability to look at the details and the granularity of each of those three things: capacity, propensity, and affinity." —Trent Beattie, Kindsight VP of Strategic Partnerships For more examples of wealth screening success, tune in to hear Trent, Justin Wheeler, Funraise CEO and Co-founder, and Troy Schnack, Action Against Hunger USA Lead Major Gifts Officer, as they discuss the value behind donor prospecting data. Then, contact Funraise to see the magic for yourself.

By combining your own first-party data with iwave’s third-party intelligence, Funraise helps you pinpoint not just who has the capacity to give, but who’s most likely to support your cause with a majorly meaningful gift. Making it even easier, Funraise adds this valuable wealth screening data into your own individual donor profiles, allowing you to start building deeper, more strategic relationships that move your mission forward. The result? Smarter insights, stronger connections, and a whole new level of fundraising efficiency built for your organization.
