The Donor Digest - the definitive weekly aid to individual and corporate donor targetting

The Donor Digest - the definitive weekly aid to individual and corporate donor targetting

The Donor Digest contains information about individuals and companies, about sponsorships and appeal launches, about recorded profits and regional business activity, about new business appointments and recent deaths. The result is a fascinating and highly useful summary of fundraising possibilities.

The Donor Digest is an invaluable resource for any organisation that takes its fundraising seriously. It is produced by fundraising professionals for fundraising professionals. It is essential for the large not for profit and the small charity alike.

The Donor Digest will:

  • improve your ability to raise significant donations from your current supporters by providing essential ‘soft’ information on their interests, often unavailable in other reference sources
  • tell you who else is in the news—and in the money—and enable you to pinpoint new opportunities for funding
  • help you work out whether you are talking to a £10,000, £50,000 or even a £100,000 prospect

Some of the people and companies included will be already among your supporters. And more of them could be. What you need is solid information about those prospects to nurture any relationship. The Donor Digest gives you that information each and every week.

Every week, the research and market intelligence people from the Fundraising Research & Consultancy team sit down and read the papers for you. They read all the major daily and Sunday broadsheets, they read Sponsorship News and Marketing Week. They even read Hello magazine. By doing this the editorial team is able to produce an up to date digest of all the news that you as fundraisers should be aware of. Very few fundraising departments have the resources to do this job on their own. And, even if it were possible for a member of your team to read every broadsheet, and a variety of trade magazines, every day, it would cost a lot more than £10 a week to do the job in-house.

Our existing Donor Digest subscribers tell us that the information on individuals provided by our service is second to none. One client raised £50,000 from a cold prospect who talked about his interest in one of the articles in the magazine.
