Many of us have heard that the "fundraiser should give before asking someone else to give." However, do you do that? My wife is one of the most generous persons I've met. We look for ways to give. I give to causes within the institution I serve..
However, recently I did a study on stewardship and had opportunity to look at giving records of fundraisers for an institution. Only a small percentage of them gave significantly to their cause!
If you aren't giving to your own cause, why would a potential donor want to give?
I hope you are generous. If not, figure out what holds you back from being generous. Givers look for ways to give.
