1 Understand their goals and values

One of the first steps to establish trust with your philanthropic partners is to understand their goals and values, and how they align with yours. This means doing your research, asking questions, and listening to their perspectives and feedback. By showing genuine interest and curiosity, you can demonstrate that you respect and appreciate their contribution, and that you are willing to learn from them. You can also use this opportunity to communicate your own goals and values, and how you plan to achieve them with their support.

Make sure you have a similar mindset of the mission. Then also get to know the partners outside the goals. That also helps. Get feedback on your ideas on where you see the philanthropy is going.

Building trust with philanthropic partners is paramount. Transparency is key - openly share your organization's mission, values, and goals. Communicate effectively and consistently to foster understanding and alignment. Demonstrate accountability by delivering on promises and showcasing the impact of their contributions. Establishing clear channels for feedback and dialogue ensures mutual respect and collaboration. Ultimately, by prioritizing honesty, integrity, and a shared commitment to creating positive change, strong and lasting partnerships can flourish.

2 Communicate clearly and consistently

Another key factor for building trust with your philanthropic partners is to communicate clearly and consistently. This means setting realistic expectations, providing regular updates, sharing successes and challenges, and soliciting input and advice. By being transparent and honest, you can show that you are accountable and responsible, and that you value their input and involvement. You can also use various channels and formats to communicate, such as emails, newsletters, reports, calls, meetings, and events, and tailor your messages to suit their preferences and needs.

Es geht nicht nur um klare und konsistente Kommunikation, sondern viel mehr. Wenn man etwas von Menschen m?chte, die philanthropisch motiviert sind, dann muss man sich aus der eigenen Haltung heraus überzeugen. Haltung sind nicht einfach Werte oder ein Kommunikationsstil. Haltung bedeutet, welche Einstellung man sich selbst und dem Anliegen gegenüber hat. Warum ist es einem selbst wichtig? Wofür tritt man da ein? Wenn man hier eine klare Haltung entwickeln und vermitteln kann, dann fehlt noch Transparenz. Egal was passiert, man muss zwar nicht immer alles im Detail teilen und Hühner scheu machen, aber man muss transparent sein und damit das Gegenüber respektieren.

5 Seek feedback and improvement

Trust also requires feedback and improvement.

Um langfristige Beziehungen mit philanthropischen Partnern zu pflegen, kann man nicht auf die Standards aus anderen Partner Strategien vertrauen. Es reicht nicht, eine Weihnachtsgru?karte zu schenken oder einen guten Wein. Hier geht es darum regelm?ssig, aber nicht zu h?ufig, für den Partner erlebbar zu machen, wie seine Werte durch die Organisation verfolgt werden. Das k?nnen Gespr?che sein oder Führungen und Besuche. Das h?ngt ganz vom Thema ab. Aber es muss Substanz haben und kann deswegen auch unregelm?ssiger erfolgen als die Klassiker.

In my experience, it was most important to demonstrate how resources were leveraged from each contributors’ commitments. In addition, I think most contributors want to know how their contribution will lead toward the receiving non-profit to eventually become self-sustaining. This can be done easily by partnering with experienced real estate developers redeveloping underutilized real estate.

Sei selbst ein Philanthrop. Das klingt jetzt ganz leicht, aber ist es nicht. Philanthropen müssen nicht gleich reich sein - du und ich k?nnen welche sein; sind es vermutlich sogar. Es geht darum aus Gefühlen und Werten eine Haltung zu entwickeln, auf die man Taten folgen l?sst.
