WHY PLANNED GIVING CAN’T WAIT
Planned giving is a glaring blind spot in many nonprofit fundraisers’ vision for their fundraising efforts. It’s all too easy to fixate on obtaining gifts now and let the long-term worry about itself—but taking this easy road imperils your organization’s future financial stability.
In this master class, you’ll learn how to give your future fundraising the careful attention it deserves. You’ll learn not only the basics of planned giving, but the intricacies of building the most fruitful legacy program possible. Topics will include:
- The best types of planned gift
- How to identify and approach your best planned giving prospects
- How to talk to donors about planned gifts
- Common myths about planned giving
