Who is a potential donor?

The 10% rule: Only 10% of getting $ is asking for it… think CULTIVATION.

The Pipeline: How do we fill it? Where do we need to spread our message for future support? Are we thinking big and wide about who we talk to about home visits? Are we making best use of our current supporters? When we get “into the room” with potential supporters, do we know what to say?

Activity: Make your case, make the ask Story Data (www.pthvp.org/what-we-do/results/) Ask

We’re all in this together!
