Legacy Foundation - Legacy Great Give -Toolkit

We've launched a new way to see Legacy at work! Explore Legacy's funds and grants with our Google Earth map! It's a work in progress, so visit often.

SEE IT NOW

In August, your donor’s money can do more! We’re excited and grateful for the opportunity the Patterson Family Foundation has provided to you by gifting $100,000 for this event!

The following information will help you as you engage with donors to raise gifts to optimize the match for your fund.

Personalized Online Donation Link. Do not use the old Network for Good link as Legacy is now using a new integrated computer system. A link that takes donors directly to your fund on the portal can be secured by contacting Legacy Operations Director Kathy Graeff at admin@legacyregionalfoundation.org.
Forms. The online toolkit includes a sample letter to donors and the donation form. (see below)
Yard Signs. Legacy has purchased double-sided “Great Give” yard signs for posting at your location and other high visibility places. We are trying to be good stewards of our limited fundraising budget, so we ask that you check them out and let us know where they are placed. In that way, we can collect the signs following the event for use at future times. Contact Yazmin at ceo@legacyregionalfoundation.org now to reserve your signs.
Banners. Legacy has purchased (5) shared banners for display at your location or another site that is supportive of your work. Banners will be available for check-out to each participating fund for a one-week period. Contact Yazmin at ceo@legacyregionalfoundation.org now to schedule your week.
Promotional materials (including social media). We are developing promotional materials (especially for social media) to publicize the event. Help us to talk about your fund by completing this questionnaire by Tuesday, July 29.

READY. SET. PROMOTE THE EVENT!

If you want something that you don't see in this toolkit, let us know. Chances are that someone else will appreciate it, too, so there's no reason to reinvent the wheel. Let us help with template pieces so you can focus on connecting with potential donors.

Start sharing on social media. As you share information out regarding your participation in Legacy's Great Give be sure to use #LegacyGreatGive and tag Legacy.

Starting August 1 you will see daily social media posts (FaceBook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram), as well as regular communications to local media and our donors. We are happy to share your news, too. If you connect with our pages, we’ll do the same for you. Our links are inserted below for your convenience:
