Here's where FreeWill can help next
Based on the sessions PKD Foundation attended, we've pulled together a few ways to keep the momentum going.
PKD Foundation is already seeing bequests come in through FreeWill's public website — 4 gifts worth $177,700 combined this past year. That's a clear sign donors are ready to include your organization in their long-term giving.
The average stock gift through FreeWill runs about $10,400, against roughly $100 for an average cash gift. Same donors, a very different number when they give a different way.
FreeWill partners get a dedicated strategist, tested campaign content, and tools that make giving simple, whether that's a will, stock, or a QCD.
