Daily Patient Screening DonorSearch s Daily Patient Screening helps you identify the best prospective donors at the perfect time to begin a relationship: while they are still in your facility, or while their positive experience is still fresh in their minds and they still feel grateful towards your organization.

Planned Giving Identification (PGID) Finding donors who plan to make sizeable bequests to your organization is very different from identifying the donors who can make major gifts. In fact, according to surveys, 40% of all planned giving donations come from donors who have not given large gifts in the past and are unknown to the organization s development officers. PGID uses sophisticated modeling and analytics to identify the donors who are most likely to support your organization with a substantial legacy gift, so your development officers can begin the conversation with future donors today. By back-testing known planned giving donors among a pool of 14,000 records, PGID was able to identify 84% of the known planned givers. The PGID Rating indicates the most likely to least likely of planned giving donors. 9
