Donors make more personal and practical calculations in their giving decisions than most organizational and advancement leaders recognize. Alumni most likely to give to their alma maters, for instance, are those who believe that the lasting value of their education greatly outweighed the cost – no matter how much they paid. Those that believe the cost outweighed the value are highly unlikely to give, no matter how little they paid.

Death isn’t a fun topic of conversation. Asking for a legacy gift can feel like you’re curious about when the donor is going to die, and most people prefer not to go there. But we have to go there. Death is the one thing that is inevitable about life. And when a person with even moderate wealth dies, something must happen to their money. Of course most people do want a say in what happens to it, which is why they write estate plans.
