Raise transformational gifts with FreeWill

Here's where FreeWill can help next

Based on the sessions Wyoming Outdoor Council 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.

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.

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.
