And The Winners Are ...

Robert Sharpe Jr.
President
The Sharpe Group

Despite the flashy influence of e-communications on the fundraising sector, not every situation calls for faster-than-the-speed-of-light cultivation. Though not removed from the touch of emerging technologies, planned giving remains one area where patience prevails and a sense of calm and stability wins more favor than a dazzling grasp of the bells and whistles of the Internet. Bob Sharpe is an all-around fundraising consultant and one of the country’s foremost authorities on gift planning. He wraps his vast knowledge in a cloak of distinguished reserve that sets the tone for nonprofits’ planned-giving efforts, and arms them with sophisticated, time-tested techniques and the know-how to enhance them with the most appropriate of the new technologies.
