Abstract:
Because of declining annual campaign revenues, the Philadelphia federation moved from an event-driven to a donor-centered integrated development model. The move involved major structural changes, a new vocabulary and way of thinking, and a new culture of development, all based on the simple concept that donors are the federation's most important asset. This new model reversed the downward trend in the annual campaign and yielded increased revenues.
