Together, they explore practical strategies for building resilient major gifts programs, balancing donor relationships with organisational pressures, and maintaining motivation in the face of rejection.

Whether you’re new to major gifts or looking to refine your approach, this episode is packed with insights, real-world examples, and encouragement for fundraisers at every level.
