Here's where FreeWill can help next
Based on the sessions President and Fellows of Harvard College attended, we've pulled together a few ways to keep the momentum going.
President and Fellows of Harvard College is already seeing bequests come in through FreeWill's public website — 2 gifts worth $355,000 combined this past year. That's a clear sign donors are ready to include your organization in their long-term giving.
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.
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.
