"I sent out about 600 letters in December, thanking people for their gifts that year and asking for a year end gift.... We generated $4,500 in less than a month, with more coming in. FundRaiser Basic makes it so much easier to track and work on these kinds of 'personal' fundraising approaches."
FundRaiser can create queries based on a combination of gift date range and donor source code. If you want to see who came to your organization during that dinner, you can set a query based on the "Annual spaghetti dinner" code and the "date added".
You can also use the same technique with a category code. For instance, create a category code of "spaghetti dinner". Then if you want to see how many people attended the big dinner of 2011, you can query based on a combination of the category code "spaghetti dinner" and any donation dated during that event in 2011.
