Hi Andrew
Just to say how much I enjoy your major giving advice. So clear and resonates with what Ive learnt in around 17 years of fundraising with high net worth individuals here in the UK. it would be great to swap experience from our respective sides of the Atlantic. Ill look forward to your discussions. Best wishes Kate
