How to run a successful group meeting

Group meetings are the best way to ensure that every individual has the opportunity to learn about KECC before you ask them to give.

Group meetings have many benefits, including:

  • Providing an environment with less pressure than one-on-one meetings
  • Employees receive accurate information to help them make an informed decision
  • Meetings can be scheduled to accommodate the work schedule of a particular division, department or location
  • Employees can ask direct questions about the KECC
    Helps you control pledge card distribution

Group meetings and other educational opportunities on average yield a 27% increase in per capita gift.

 

Tips for Successful Group Meetings

  • Promote payroll deduction as the easiest way to give
  • Meetings should last between 15 and 30 minutes
  • Distribute personalized pledge cards at the meeting
  • Show the campaign video and/or use employee or charity speakers
