The Universe of Gifts: Institutional Strategy, Academic Priorities and Collective Impact – Mid-level Giving and the Donor Pipeline
4:45 PM - 5:45 PM SGT
Speaker(s): Chris Harvey, Director of Development, The University of Melbourne, Clare Kelly, Head of Leadership Giving and Engagement, The University of Melbourne
Elective Session
In mid 2021, the University of Melbourne identified the establishment of a mid level giving program - Leadership Giving and Engagement – to strategically focus on building donor pipeline. To achieve this outcome, the program has focused on the radical simplification and consolidation of mid-level giving in service of institutional strategy and academic priorities, away from highly bespoke gifts toward a demonstration of the impact possible through collective giving.
