Creating a Culture of Gratitude
Halley Gmeiner
Thursday, September 23
9:30 – 10:30 AM (PT) | 12:30 – 1:30 PM (ET)
This session will explore how creating a culture of gratitude among staff can lead to a better donor experience. We’ll explore ways to encourage staff, especially those outside development, to be part of the donor relations cycle, and how creating an organization-wide week of gratitude can boost morale and strengthen your relationship with donors, especially those often forgotten about: small-level, mid-level and recurring.
Learning Objectives

- An outline of a practical application of a virtual week of donor appreciation, with plans for teams of all sizes
- One amazing thank you note to a team member

 Halley Gmeiner
Director of Stewardship
RepresentUs
Halley heads stewardship efforts for the national non-partisan, non-profit RepresentUs, the country's largest right-left anti-corruption organization working to give power to the people, not politicians. Previously, she spent a few years at her alma mater, American University, in the Office of the Vice President before embarking on a two-month trip to visit all 48 continental states with her then girlfriend, now wife. She landed in Western Massachusetts at Smith College, where she discovered her love of donor relations. This passion pairs well with her desire to create a government that works for all us, not just special interests and corporations, so she considers her current position at RepresentUs her dream role. When not showering donors with gratitude for their generosity, Halley enjoys showering her family and friends with gratitude for their generosity.
