AUGUST 2026

📣 Upcoming campaigns for you to close out 2026

There are two great opportunities this fall to help your supporters take action on their financial and estate plans—and we’re here to make both campaigns easy to launch.

🚀 End of Year (EOY) Smart Giving Suite

Don’t miss the momentum: partners who actively promote smart giving to educate their donors bring in 2x the number of gifts compared to those who do not.

Make the most of your year-end fundraising with a campaign designed to create urgency and inspire action.

  • Choose from an educational no-ask email, or use an observance or mission story to directly ask for donations. This year we are also offering a faith-specific framing.
  • Find print templates, evergreen videos from FreeWill CEO Patrick Schmitt and fundraising expert Dr. Russell James, and more in the Marketing Library
  • Request your custom copy by November 13th

📅 National Estate Planning Awareness Week (NEPAW) — 10/19–25

Use this focused week to encourage supporters to review or create their estate plans and drive them to your Bequest tools.

  • One focused email supported by additional assets in the Marketing Library
  • Choose from four framing options: Mission Story, Partner Event, Financial Check-Up, or Certainty
  • Faith-specific variation available for the Mission Story and Certainty framings
  • Request your campaign copy and tracking links by October 9th

How to Participate:

If you're ready to get started, reach out to your Strategist to request your campaign copy and tracking links!

You're invited: FreeWill party at CGP!

Are you planning to attend the CGP Conference this year (October 14–16 in New Orleans)? If so, we hope you’ll join us on Thursday, October 15th for an unforgettable evening. We’ve locked down two floors of the iconic Old Absinthe House located in the heart of the historic French Quarter. We’ll be there from 6pm–9pm CT so you are welcome to stop in whenever you can.
