Building relationships a giver at a time.
In his book, Servanthood: Leadership for the Third Millennium, Bennett Sims states boldly, "To challenge people to give is to do them a favor." As development professionals, do we truly agree? When we ask someone to give, do we believe we are doing them a favor? To challenge people to give, our greatest effort should center on creating meaningful donor relationships.
