How IDAG Promotes Members to Donors
1) In 2010: Brochure, Calendar. In 2011: E-cards, E-Signatures and
World Map. These will highlight the work of our United Ways. We
will need photos/permissions and success stories to include in these
promotional materials.
2) Google Earth. We would like to place all United Way members on
Google Earth. We need your permission, however.
3) Please re-sign your IDAG documentation on July 1st of each year.
This will ensure that all of our United Ways are on the same
schedule, and we won’t need to request information for an entire
year.
4) Add us to your listservs, newsletter transmissions, etc.
5) Website re-vamp is complete.
6) Please view our IDAG webinar, if you haven’t already:

Increasing Resources for Social Investment:
Discussion
• What are your programming priorities—education, income, health,
environment, etc?
• Are you open to receiving funds outside of your priority areas?
• Are you interested in implementing disaster programming?
• Who are your top 5 US-based donors?
• Which US-based companies that operate in your area have you
already approached and which would you like to approach? How
can we (IDAG and GCL) work best with you to make this happen?
• What suggestions do you have for increasing US-based interest in
your UW? Are there expatriates (US citizens living abroad) in your
countries that want to give to your UWs and want a tax deduction
from the US? (US embassy officials, Peace Corps, corporate
leaders, etc).
