Episode: Episode 215: The Cornerstone of Fundraising - TRUST How to get and keep it with Prospects and Donors
Description: In the world of philanthropy, trust is the backbone of any successful donor relationship. A recent lawsuit against the Red Cross, over their handling of restricted donations for Haiti, highlights how crucial this element is.

This situation underscores the importance of building genuine, transparent, and lasting relationships with donors, a theme central to philanthropy but often overlooked in discussions about fundraising strategy.
