I delivered presentations to prospective corporate donors on our work and how our partnership would look and evolve. I then held and stewarded corporate accounts at the initial meeting, for events, and reporting, and was responsible for updating and maintaining over 1300 Corporate, Trust & Foundation, Major Donor, and Community Donor Salesforce accounts. - Worked closely with our Marketing and Communications Manager on creating collateral for both prospective and current corporate partners. - Sent out Bi-Quarterly Thematic Newsletters to our donor database of over 8000 contacts, highlighting specific charities and their work. - Created Enthuse pages for corporate and community donors, and supported their fundraising efforts. - Sourced and allocated books and toys for 17,000 children in London for our Christmas Tree Appeal campaign with the Metropolitan Police. I also planned and monitored the delivery of over 28,000 Christmas gifts, and created and promoted Christmas fundraising pages for corporate donors for our Christmas Tree Appeal campaign.
