Hi Jacqui
Great that you are thinking about scaling this up. A number of the schools I worked with in the UK had their biggest gifts come as bequests from former staff. Anecdotally, it also appears that bringing former staff back for events helps encourage alumni who they taught to come along too… as long as they weren’t the scary teacher who was too quick to hand out detentions!
Best wishes
