Tax season is a time when many donors are already thinking about their finances and may be more receptive to the idea of leaving a planned gift. By reaching out to donors during this time, nonprofits can capitalize on this heightened awareness and potentially secure more planned gifts than they would at other times of the year.
Sending emails to nonprofit supporters about the impact of leaving a bequest can be a powerful way to raise awareness about this giving opportunity. These emails can highlight the impact that bequests can have on the organization’s mission and programs, and provide valuable information about the process of making a bequest.
