Major donor moves management template

Moves management means planning a series of meaningful contacts that bring each major donor closer to a gift and keep them engaged after it. This board gives each donor a row across twelve months, with icons for calls, visits, letters, events, proposals, gifts and thank-yous. Filled icons are done and outlines are planned, a red line marks today, and the last column names each donor's next move, owner and month.

This is a planning example, not legal, tax or fundraising regulation advice. Check Gift Aid, data protection and fundraising rules where you work.

Questions about this template

What do the filled and outline markers mean?

Filled markers are moves already done and outlines are planned ones, and the icon shows the type, such as a call, visit or proposal. Drag a marker to a new month when plans change.
