Prospect Development Case Study: Tufts University School of Medicine
The Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) wanted to boost alumni engagement and understand the correlation between donors and their level of connection to the university. TUSM partnered with BWF to run an Engage Dx Constituent Survey over a three-year period. This survey allowed them to access clear data to improve future decision-making.
