The PEJE Development Community of Practice is a networking venue for sharing, vetting, and building knowledge around day school development best practices. The CoP brings together professional Directors of Development and other school administrators who participate in development functions. The CoP provides varied opportunities for community members to learn together, share information and ideas, solve problems, and provide support. Through telephone workshops, in conjunction with ongoing discussions on the Development CoP Google Group, members reap the benefits of this group's work through the sharing of high quality models, best practices, and innovative ideas.
For more information on the Development Community of Practice, please contact Erica Cabag.
There is no charge to participate in this Community of Practice. To join, send your name and email address along with a brief paragraph about your school to Erica Cabag, Program Associate, Growing Annual Campaign Revenue.

The Next CoP Call
Date TBD
"Donor Recognition: How Do You Thank & Acknowledge Your Donors?"
Facilitator: Erica Cabag, Program Manager, PEJE
Guest: Francine Shron, Development Manager, PEJE
A known truth: we can’t do the work we do without the support of our generous donors. But how do you thank and honor them for their contributions to your schools? Donor recognition requires a mix of respect and creativity that varies from contributor to contributor. Guest presenter Francine Shron, PEJE’s Development Manager, will join us to explore the large world of donor recognition and will also speak to us about PEJE’s new national endowment and legacy donor association, the L’Dor V’Dor Society. We will send additional information closer to the call date.

Voices from the Field: Finding Value in the MATCH CoP
"I found the MATCH CoP call about Moves Management very worthwhile. As a result, the topic was a major agenda item at our February Development Committee Meeting. The discussion inspired the committee, and a summary of Moves Management was subsequently forwarded to our Board of Trustees."
Leslie Sporn, Director of Development & Marketing, The Shoshana S. Cardin School, Baltimore, MD
