2018 ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN WHAT IT IS: The Annual Giving Campaign is the YMCA of Austin s annual fundraising drive. It is the primary effort of the Y to raise the important funding used to support financial assistance for members, children and families in our communities and to expand programming. It is the lifeblood of our work! WHO IT HELPS: One hundred percent of Annual Campaign contributions go directly back into the community. These funds help make it possible for children, families, seniors, neighbors and others to benefit from Y programs and memberships, regardless of their financial circumstances. WHY IT MATTERS: The YMCA of Austin is a leading non-profit organization whose mission is to serve the community through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all regardless of background, lifestyle or economic status. We believe that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we all work together to invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. The crucial funding raised through the Annual Giving Campaign make programs and opportunities accessible to people and communities that they would not have otherwise. HOW IT WORKS: More than 300 community volunteers and Y staff join together in an effort to tell the Y story to everyone in their networks: friends, family, colleagues, fellow members and program participants. The campaign is as much about friend-raising communicating the YMCA s daily impact on people s lives as it is about raising dollars to fund financial assistance and expand programs. WHEN IT HAPPENS: Cultivation and stewardship happens year-round and early asks for major gifts, as well as for board and staff gifts, typically start in October and November. The main fundraising drive for 2018 kicks-off on Tuesday, February 13, 2018 and concludes on Tuesday, March 27, 2018. We ll celebrate our successes on Thursday, March 29, 2018 at the Victory party. YOUR ROLE: During the Annual Giving Campaign, we rely on our volunteers and staff to be ambassadors and champions of our mission. This is achieved through sharing our stories, communicating our impact, connecting people to our cause and providing them the opportunity to give back to their community by donating.

TIPS AND TOOLS Predictors of Success Doing these things should lead to a successful campaign! Stewardship & Cultivation Thank your donors: Use the time leading up to the campaign to thank your donors in as many ways possible. Share impact: Invite your donor or prospective donor to see a program their donation makes possible; send a story or video about someone who benefits from Annual Campaign donations; have a program participant send a note about how their life has changed. Get creative! Utilizing Your Data Information on your donors is available to you to help grow your relationship and refine your approach with your donors. Please refer to the data and reporting provided by the development department to help with your efforts. Start Early No time like the present! Getting the support of our closest family and long-time supporters (board and staff members, returning major gifts) in October, November and December gives us a strong lead toward our goal before heading into the public phase of the campaign in February. (*NOTE: Written commitments are fine the donor can fulfill their gift anytime through the following December of the campaign year.) Know Your Y Story What inspires you to raise money for the Y? What is the story you want to share? What are the programs you are passionate about? Tell as many people as you can! Be Informed and Involved Know who your Branch Chair, Team Captain & Team are Read newsletters and weekly tips Make your own personal commitment or gift Identify prospects Set up personal fundraising page online Update your calendar with trainings and events BE INTENTIONAL Schedule time to steward your donors and then make your asks Making the Ask Describe your involvement with the Y Share your Y story Ask open-ended questions Find a connection between the Y and their passions Offer your donor or prospect the chance to get involved and make a difference Speak in terms of IMPACT, not dollars (i.e., Give the gift of swim lessons to a child instead of donate $50) Would you consider a gift of Would you join me in supporting Always say Thank You even if a person does not donate (it s not always a no sometimes it s just a not right now ) Keep in mind that the number one reason people don t give is because they haven t been asked! Know the Difference: Membership Fees vs. Donations 5
Membership and program fees cover our operating and administrative costs, including: Utilities & Occupancy Facility & Pool Maintenance Equipment & Technology Salaries & Services Donated funds enable us: To subsidize many programs and increase affordability, To provide direct financial assistance for those who cannot afford program and membership fees, To expand existing programs, particularly in underserved communities; and To provide start-up funds for community programs. Our Impact 2017 $2.4 million provided in financial assistance 100,000+ Members served in 2017 60,000+ Program participants 38,000+ Men, women and children provided with financial support Our Need 2018 $2.75 million provided in financial assistance 110,000+ Members served 65,000+ Program participants 40,000+ Men, women and children provided with financial support Handling Donations Donations include: Pledges, cash and or checks In order for the Development Department to process donations and acknowledge donors promptly, donations and pledges must be submitted in a timely manner. Please follow these guidelines when a donation is received: Check with your branch Executive on the process for turning in donations (should you turn them into the branch first or directly to the Metro office?) Turn in the donation within 48-72 hours of receiving it Turn in each donation with a pledge card filled out and signed by the donor Don t leave donation unattended in car, desk, etc. 6
STEWARDSHIP The Donor-Centered Fundraising Cycle Studies commissioned by Y-USA tell us many of our donors and partners do not perceive the Y as more than a swim and gym. We are not engaging our supporters in a donor- centered way that shows the impact of their gifts to our communities. A focus on stewardship and donor relations (i.e. saying thank you, recognizing generosity, reporting impact, and experiencing programs first-hand) in our Y s fundraising program can help ensure that your donors experience the type of high-quality interactions with our Y that fosters long-term engagement and investment. The Donor Centered Fundraising Cycle works best when a successful donor relations and stewardship plan is in place to support each step. It is important to connect donors to the Y s cause in order to develop meaningful relationships. Donor retention and donor fatigue are real issues. It costs the Y six to seven times more to acquire a new donor than to retain an existing one. The Y cannot afford to miss the mark when it comes to saying thank you or to neglect opportunities to demonstrate not just program activity, but program outcomes. 7

What is an in-kind gift? Gifts-in-kind, also referred to as in-kind donations, are a type of charitable giving in which, instead of giving money to buy needed goods and services, the goods and services themselves are given. Gifts-in-kind are different from gifts of cash or stock. When can an in-kind donation be counted towards Annual Campaign revenue? In-kind donations can only be counted towards your Annual Campaign Revenue if the item(s) have been budgeted for and a GL Code is provided on the request form that corresponds with the expense. Examples of acceptable in-kind donations that can be counted as revenue: A credit reflected on an invoice of services. Ex: Your branch owes Company ABC $1,000 for a service; the invoice they send you includes a credit of $600, bringing the total amount due to $400. This $600 credit must be listed on the invoice as a donation NOT as a discount. Your branch has a budgeted expense of $250 to cover the cost of food at an upcoming event. Restaurant XYZ donates the food without charging your branch. A document or invoice from the restaurant needs to be provided to reflect this. If you are unsure whether or not a donation can be counted as Annual Campaign revenue, please check with the development department to confirm before accepting or submitting the gift. NOTE: Sometimes, the item being donated has a value to the donor greater than the amount your branch has budgeted. Only the amount you would have spent on the item can be counted toward your Annual Campaign revenue. However, the donor may work with their tax professional to reflect the actual fair market value of the donation when submitting their taxes. Please contact the development department with questions. What back up do I need to provide to the Development Dept. for an in-kind gift? When receiving an in-kind donation, please be sure the individual or organization can provide a receipt or documentation that specifically reflects the goods or service being donated. What if a donor wants to make an in-kind donation that is not budgeted for? We always aim to celebrate any gesture of philanthropy made by our constituents. If a donor would like to contribute goods or services to the YMCA of Austin, please check with your branch executive or the development department to ensure the items being donated are appropriate before accepting them. Even items given with the best of intentions are not always something we can accommodate. A special letter of acknowledgment reflecting the contribution that the donor can use for his/her tax purposes will be provided to the donor by the development department. 17
