Program Title:
Growing in Greatness:
Gift Planning on a Shoestring

Charitable gift plans are usually the ultimate gift a donor will make to your organization-researcher Russell James found they can be eleven times larger than total annual giving for the largest estates. Dr. James also shows that donors who include your charity in their estate plans typically increase their annual giving, so an organized charitable gift planning effort will likely show results even before the first bequest is realized. Can you reap those benefits on a budget? This presentation includes advice on low cost ways to keep these ultimate gift opportunities in front of your loyal supporters through consistent multi-channel messaging and talking points for all front line fund raisers. You will also discover some ways to identify those who may have an inclination to include you in their estate plans.
