 Having worked closely with Vincent Fraumeni for more than two years, I enthusiastically endorse him, his professional demeanor and commitment to getting results. Working with my Board and major donor prospects, Vince has helped to raise some very significant gifts to our endowment campaign, including our first-ever $1 million gift. He demonstrates a remarkable skill in relating to people of all walks of life, befriending them with his good nature and giving them the confidence that personal matters of gift planning will remain confidential and treated with dignity and humility. I'm proud to know and work with Vincent Fraumeni as my organization competes regionally for increased contributions.

Drawing on years of board development and strategic planning experience for not-for-profit organizations, Vince Fraumeni provided a very insightful approach to the planning of our annual board retreat. He quickly tapped into the key issues of our present organization and developed a program that produced action oriented results. As the facilitator, Vince was able to engage our board members in a meaningful dialogue that provided a springboard for the strategic direction of our organization. The board enjoyed Vince's presentation style -- it's been months since the board retreat and they're still talking about Vince and the positive retreat experience.

Vince is one of the most knowledgeable planned gift development professionals in the business. He also has an uncanny understanding of what is required to successfully and tastefully market planned gift opportunities and services to donors, advisors, attorneys and financial professionals. I know. We worked together to build a very successful program in Los Angeles.

“Vince, your knowledge of the charitable giving and estate planning industry, as well as your technical and formal writing style has been an asset to the production of many of our planned giving newsletters. I appreciate all of the hard work you do on each article and hope to continue using your service and talents in the future.”

“We invited Mr. Fraumeni to conduct a presentation about “Marketing Planned Gifts” for our Southern Union Trust Services Continuing Education Seminar. He took time to understand our program and tailored his presentation to meet our needs. Many of those in attendance are still referring to information presented in his seminar. One of our more senior field representatives said, “I wish that I would have been exposed to this information earlier in my experience. I will certainly be putting these marketing principles to work in my field.” Vince has a way of making things easy to understand, is informative, motivating, and interesting. I highly recommend him as a presenter if you want to learn about marketing planned gift programs.”

I hired Vince Fraumeni 17 years ago because I had seen his marketing of planned giving. In those years he has become an expert in his field. He has taught many courses for top professionals. He knows his materials and knows how to present it to Board members, donors, and planned giving professionals.

Vince is a man whose integrity and character equals his high professional standards. Having worked with Vince, I know him to be an excellent relationship builder and fundraiser. He knows what he is talking about and has trained countless professionals sharing his knowledge about marketing and closing gifts.
