Since 2016, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, has grown its custom impact report program from stewarding 8 major donors (4 couples) to now 48 major donors (23 couples and 2 individuals), as well as implemented a tiered annual report that provides a unique experience to the additional 110+ Torchbearer Society members who have each contributed $1 million+ in lifetime giving. This has enabled UT to have a significant stewardship impact on major donors with an eye on the limits of staff capacity. The cross functionality our team possesses has brought the custom impact book and annual report strategy to a new level.
