Why are some stories meaningful and memorable to us and others are not?

So, What’s Your Story?

How can my story have the greatest impact? The 3 stages of your 3-minute story: 1. “BEFORE” 2. “INTERVENTION” 3. “AFTER”

What is Your Donor’s Story? Ask QUESTIONS and LISTEN:

When were you here last?

What did you love about camp? 23 What propelled him/her?

What values do you have today… that were deepened at camp?

What are you passionate about today – that you first became aware of at camp? 25

Never underestimate the power of one step.

Or the power of doing things together.

What skill do you have today that you learned at camp?

How many places are there to share about the impact of camp?

How is this for a fundraising idea?!
