As the calendar year draws to a close, pledge fulfillment becomes one of the most critical — and often most challenging — priorities for advancement teams. Missed reminders, donor fatigue, and poorly timed outreach can put both year-end goals and donor relationships at risk.

In this Lunch & Learn, we’ll explore how to make pledge reminders a strategic part of your year-end stewardship. You’ll learn how to deliver reminders that not only encourage timely fulfillment but also strengthen donor connections during the busiest season of giving. We’ll cover strategies for making pledge reminders more donor-centric, integrating them into stewardship touchpoints, and even using them as opportunities for renewed or increased support.

Key takeaways include:

• How to craft pledge reminders that drive year-end fulfillment without donor fatigue

• Stewardship-focused approaches that turn reminders into relationship-building moments

• Timing strategies to maximize gifts now while encouraging fulfillment later, especially around the holiday season

• Practical tips to ensure pledge reminders help, not hinder, your year-end goals

Whether you’re in advancement services, gift administration, or frontline fundraising, this session will give you the tools to transform pledge reminders from routine tasks into year-end success drivers.
