Approval of Donation Solicitation
Prospect Management is a critical component in the identification, cultivation, solicitation, recognition, and stewardship of private funding sources, that is, donors and sponsors, through a centralized and managed process. A centralized system for Lakehead University ensures that:
- Funding opportunities can be maximized to the greatest benefit of Lakehead overall;
- Donors continue to be stewarded to enhance the donor/institution relationship for the greatest benefit to both;
- Multiple solicitations are avoided; and
- Future donations are encouraged
