Donor Story Writing Services

Donor Stories Motivate Others to Give and Generate Second Time Gifts

Legacy giving donor stories are among the most effective ways to reach and engage with your audience. They have power.

Your donors want to make a difference — and they want to be a key part of your winning team. That’s why it’s important to have a system in place to pursue, record and share donor stories. The problem, for most fundraisers, is finding the time to do it and do it well. Donors are always happy to talk … and talk, and talk, and talk … when you ask them, “What’s your story?” That’s a good thing. As long as you have plenty of:

  • Time to interview
  • Time to write
  • Time to track down a good photo
  • Time to schedule…
  • Time to reschedule
  • Time to review, edit, re-edit, and
  • Time for final approval

And Time Is One Thing You Don't Have. Solution?

Let us do it for you instead. We’ll handle the interviewing, writing, editing, and photo collecting. And we’ll thank your donor in a way that makes him or her feel like a hero. We know how to:

  • Keep an interview on track
  • Ask the right questions
  • Find the heart of a story
  • Get the details to make it stand out
  • Write a story that shines

The result? A more emotionally bonded donor and a compelling story to post on your planned giving website or on a Donor Album. (Yes, we’ll handle that, too.)

Starting at $2,495.

See bottom of page for using a planned giving explainer video with your donor story.

“… people have an incredible appetite for stories.”

Explainer Videos

Donor stories can be linked to a specific explainer video on how a gift, mentioned in the donor story, works. In addition, donor stories used in Ways-of-Giving brochures make a powerful impact.

Over 15 videos that can be branded. Topics include blended gifts, donor advised funds, qualified charitable distributions (QCD / IRA Rollover), charitable gift annuities (CGAs) and more.

Reach out! We look forward to hearing from you.
