UW Foundation Stewardship Workshop begins Aug. 5

What is good stewardship? Please join us for our annual stewardship workshop and learn how we define development and practice stewardship with University of Wisconsin-Madison donors. Donor stewardship can mean the difference between a one-time gift and an ongoing mutually rewarding relationship. The Foundation’s workshops will give you the tools, confidence and inspiration to offer exceptional stewardship to your donors.
