Advancement Services
Few things are more powerful than information and it is the goal of Advancement Services to gather, organize, manage, share and safeguard information that guides the advancement of our fundraising mission. Our team applies leadership and expertise to facilitate fundraising and stewardship; we provide the essential infrastructure to keep donor information secure; and we use technical solutions to ensure accuracy in the gifts we process and funds we manage. We adhere to IRS, CASE, and APRA guidelines in the handling of data. And we thank you for the trust you have placed in us through your generous giving.
