iWave Helps Advancement Teams Make More Targeted Major Gift Asks

For the advancement teams of private schools and higher education institutions, major gifts and endowments come from a specific group of individuals. Due to pre-established affinity, a school’s alumni is often the first and primary focus when raising major gifts. By leveraging the power of fundraising intelligence, educational institutions are able to both think and act strategically to go beyond alumni when identifying new prospective donors and formulating gift asks.

Using iWave, advancement teams can:

Perform wealth screenings on incoming classes to discover affluent parents of new students to add to major gift portfolios.
Identify and build prospect profiles on financially successful alumni who have a proven affinity to their institution.
Sort and search alumni by donation and volunteer history using iWave’s Alumni feature to better target major gift asks when funding new programs or constructing new buildings.
Set alerts on alumni to be notified if and when they become insiders with major gift potential.
