Cultivation
Gateway takes great pride in the care they give your donors. The personal, human-to-human conversations Gateway allows you to have with your donors is proven to add value by increasing giving frequency, total annual giving and most importantly donor retention.
Lapsed Donors
Reactivating lapsed donors is tough and expensive. Gateway provides a proven method of fundraising that will maximize the response from lapsed donors and maintain a positive ROI.
Monthly Recurring Donors
We’ve developed an all-star team of communicators, specifically trained to grow and upgrade your monthly recurring donor file.
Outbound Voice Messages
No time or budget for live calls, outbound voice messages are a great way to communicate quickly and inexpensively. Whether it’s an urgent update…or a simple “Thank You”. We also offer a hybrid solution using live agents when donors answer, and OVM when they don’t.

Over the past several years of working with Gateway, we committed to a robust telephone fundraising strategy. Their efforts focused on the mission, needs, and passion of Mercy Ships and our donors. Their commitment to our success has been evident every step of the way. Gateway continues to help transform our fundraising approach, specifically with their lapsed, mid-level and monthly sustainer campaigns.
Arlene Harris
Director of Donor Process
Mercy Ships
I firmly believe telephone fundraising is a viable and relevant way of engaging donors and keeping them active over the long term … I would certainly recommend Gateway to help you in your efforts. Their callers are professional, polite, compelling, and delivered a good ROI … Gateway has met or surpassed our cost and revenue requirements for cultivation calls as well.

VP of Development
Denver Rescue Mission
Donors who respond to these campaigns tend to increase their giving frequencies. Most of our lapsed donors who respond to Gateway campaigns continue to actively donate over subsequent years. Gateway succeeds increasing the long term value of our donors while still managing to raise net revenue in the short term.
