Summer Development Update
“August allows us time to dream.”
– Eileen Greenlay, Director of Development
Summer is busy for Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services. In May, we honored our fallen heroes with our annual Memorial Day mailing. In June, we expanded the Development Team. In July, we reached out to over 900 friends and donors to request funding for our Women Veterans Program.
So far this summer, we had meetings with 12 new potential partners, submitted/are actively working on 20 letters of inquiry or grant applications (six of which are collaborations with other partners), had numerous one-on-one conversations with individual donors and prospects and attended three large conferences/events.
Additionally, we have completely revamped our donor management process, and we are utilizing new digital tools to be more efficient and effective. It’s been invigorating.
August allows for a little catch-up time in our lives. We spend time with family, and we get more organized with our work. We also dream big about the future of Dixon Center. It’s exciting.
