Without connecting with your donors, retaining them is impossible. And your charity gala dinner gives you the perfect opportunity to do so. Talk to your donors and supporters in person. Learn more about their interests and thank them for showing their support. Get to know them better. Having face-to-face conversations acts as a driving force to get them to support your organization again. This shows donors that you care about them and that your event is not all about raising funds. Major donors and loyal donors must be greeted by your director or board members. This shows that you value them and, in turn, builds donor loyalty.
