Raise transformational gifts with FreeWill

Here's where FreeWill can help next

Based on the sessions Union of Concerned Scientists attended, we've pulled together a few ways to keep the momentum going.

Union of Concerned Scientists is already seeing bequests come in through FreeWill's public website — 10 gifts worth $346,375 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.

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