WEBINAR | Working with High-Capacity Families: Relationships, Readiness & the Art of the Ask 

In independent school fundraising, a handful of families often hold the power to transform what’s possible: for a campaign, for a building, for a generation of students. But cultivating these relationships is anything but straightforward. 

The webinar will explore the nuanced, high-stakes work of identifying your school’s most transformational prospects, understanding what truly motivates their giving, and building the kind of trust that doesn’t collapse under the weight of a big conversation. 

Joining us for this conversation:

• Noe Archambault, Vice President for Institutional Advancement, Punahou School 
• George Maley, Chief Advancement Officer, Noble and Greenough School 
• Jim Zimmerman, Independent Schools Practice Leader | Senior Consultant & Principal, Marts&Lundy 

Together, they bring deep, firsthand experience navigating the complex relationships at the heart of transformational giving in independent schools. 

We’ll explore:

• How to identify and profile your highest-capacity families 
• What drives transformational giving and how it differs from major gift motivations
• How to navigate complex family dynamics, competing priorities, and long cultivation timelines
• Strategies for maintaining momentum and trust through every stage of the relationship

Whether you’re heading into a campaign or simply want to strengthen your approach to your top prospects, this webinar will give you practical advice and honest conversation about the work that happens long before any gift is made.
