William & Mary Secured over $500,000 in Just Three Months with Givzey

Partnership with Givzey has strengthened the University’s fundraising efforts

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, UNITED STATES, September 26, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- William & Mary, the No. 1 public university in the U.S. for eight consecutive years in annual undergraduate alumni giving, has elevated its philanthropic efforts to new heights through a dynamic partnership with Givzey, the nonprofit fundraising sector’s first Retention Platform. In just three months, W&M secured over $500,00 in giving with Givzey.

With a commitment to advancing innovative solutions for bolstering support to its people, places, and programs, William & Mary sought avenues to make multi-year giving more accessible to donors across all levels. Previous manual processes hindered this strategy, particularly for mid-level donors. Enter Givzey’s Gift Agreement and Retention Platform.

“Givzey has empowered us to open new doors and scale multi-year giving opportunities broadly across leadership and annual giving, board members, and each of our fundraising units,” said Matthew T. Lambert, William & Mary’s vice president for university advancement.

Givzey onboarded W&M’s frontline fundraisers in a single day, as they were working on the final couple weeks of their fiscal year-end push. In just three months, the W&M team used Givzey to bring a multi-year giving strategy to fundraising programs where it’s been too difficult to tackle before, including the fiscal year-end push, athletics, board giving, and major gifts. To date, this strategy has secured $500,000 in gifts, with the largest being $105,000 and the average gift $2,500.

“Retention is the key to building sustainable growth in fundraising and a healthy giving pipeline that empowers organizations for decades – and that all begins with scaling multi-year giving strategies to donors of all giving levels,” said Adam Martel, founder & CEO of Givzey. “Givzey’s partnership with Matthew and the entire William & Mary team is proof that when innovation is supported by extraordinary leadership and targeted at specific and meaningful challenges, the payoff can be immensely measurable and immediate.”
