The Future of Fundraising with Donor Relations

By: Danielle Peace

Our previous Donor Relations Chair and new Vice President of Fund Development, Katey Baron, has been dedicated to building new goals for the future of fundraising for the Junior League of Cincinnati.

A key component of the plan is to focus on corporate sponsorships; by reaching out to various corporations to sponsor the JLC for the whole year, organizations and companies will have the chance for multiple points of exposure at GMMs, events and fundraisers. The Donor Relations Committee is creating new sponsorship packets which will be available for sharing soon. “We will be looking to start asking for sponsorships around early to mid-summer. We are looking at internal as well as external sponsors. The goal is to cut down on operating expenses,” shared Katey

You can help by asking your companies or organizations you know in the community, that we can create a relationship with. You may also donate to the Annual Fund which contributes to our operating budget and helps further our mission. Suggestions for corporate sponsorships can be sent to donations@jlcincinnati.org and the donations link to the Annual Fund can be found at the top of our website, under “Donate” at jlcincinnati.org
