Welcome to my Annual Giving Forum

I just started this blog and I'm hoping that people in Annual Giving and Development use it as a place to share ideas, strategies and advice.

My name is Erin Rickert and I am about to start my career in Annual Giving this summer. I will graduate from the University of Dayton in May 2008. I have been an employee of UD's Telefund program since freshman year and I was promoted to supervisor my sophomore year. At UD I have raised over $70,000 in annual gifts including renewal and acquisition gifts at the president's club level.

Particular interests of mine include how to integrate an entire marketing campaign. In university settings this include combining annual gift solitications by mail and phone with alumni relations pieces. I'm also interested in how to use internet strategies with annual giving and how generational marketing is so important for our industry.

I look forward to blogging with you all and learning from your experiences.

Best -
erin

I'm here to share my testimony of what a good trusted loan company did for me, I'm from Russian and I’m a lovely mother of 3 kids I lost my funds on trying to get a loan to expand my evergreen group company it was so hard for me and my children, I went online to seek for a loan assistance all hope was lost until one fateful day when I met this friend of mine who recently secured a loan from a very honest man Mr, Pedro. She introduced me to this honest loan officer, Mr. Pedro, who helped me get a loan within 5 working days, I will forever be grateful to Mr Pedro, for helping me get back on my feet again. You can contact Mr Pedro via email: pedroloanss@gmail.com / WhatsApp: +18632310632 they do not know I’m doing this for them, but i just have to do it because a lot of people are out there who are in need of loan assistance please come to this honest man and you can be safe as well.
