Here's where FreeWill can help next
Based on the sessions Washington State University 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.
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.
William, FreeWill's AI writing tool for nonprofit fundraisers, turns a blank page into a first draft of an appeal, thank-you note, or social post in minutes — built to write in your organization's own voice.
