Donors love to play bridge. Where do I find ppl that love to play bridge? Community centers, Senior Centers. Sponsor a bridge tournament. etc... - Don’t assume that everyone wants to be members or wants to make a gift. Not everyone is a good donor prospect - People have their favorites. Things that have touched their lives. LIA - Bill Gates has money, lets go after him...use this tool Linkage (link to organization - physical or emotional) Interest (in the work that you are doing) Ability (have ability to make a gift)
