As you consider the people connected to your organization, how do you know who might have the capacity to make a generous gift?

Your potential gift will be determined by where a donor’s interest and ability to give intersect. Your organization has the compelling story and works hard to raise awareness and interest in your cause; now, the next important step is identifying those people who have the ability to put dollars behind your mission.

 The DBD Philanthropic Lift Analysis screens and analyzes your donor data to provide you with strategic recommendations for retaining donors and maximizing growth.
