A revolutionary practical methodology to address major and planned giving that continues to prove exceedingly effective today.

Russ Alan Prince

Communitarians – most common wealthy donor; doing good just makes sense.

The Devout – doing God’s will; religious convictions motivate them.

Investors – charitable giving is good business; a very apparent dual purpose to giving.

Socialites – help nonprofits and have a good time doing so through social functions.

Altruists – give out of a sense of moral imperative to “do the right thing.”; tend to be modest and to give anonymously.

Repayers – former recipients of a service (or people close to them have); often medical & educational causes; give out of a sense of gratitude.

Dynasts – inherited wealth; giving resonates within family: expectations to support nonprofits.
