Bequest marketing is the cornerstone of effective planned giving strategies for nonprofits seeking sustainable funding. Unlike complex charitable vehicles, bequests are accessible to donors of all income levels, requiring no immediate financial commitment while yielding gifts 200-300 times larger than lifetime donations. By implementing strategic bequest marketing through multiple channels, nonprofits can build lasting donor relationships and secure their financial future with minimal resources. Start with bequest marketing before exploring more complex planned giving options—it’s the simplest, most effective approach to legacy fundraising.
