Raise transformational gifts with FreeWill

Here's where FreeWill can help next

Based on the sessions Eskolta School Research and Design attended, we've pulled together a few ways to keep the momentum going.

FreeWill's Auto-Stewardship acknowledges and engages your bequest donors at scale with timely, customized emails sent on your behalf, no extra work for your team.

FreeWill partners get a dedicated strategist and a tested year-end campaign structure, so your team isn't building the plan from scratch.

A FreeWill Featureship puts your nonprofit in front of thousands of people making a will each month — a direct way to reach donors you haven't met yet.
