On Demand Program
Do you find yourself having conversations with prospects about planned giving that may be just outside of your comfort zone? Are you a member of a development team that wants to diversify your giving opportunities and begin to offer a legacy giving program to your donors?
Planned Gifts are an essential element to your development mix, and can provide stability and longevity to programs that serve your mission. Data shows that organizations that accept asset-based gifts grow faster than organizations that do not, yet some institutions struggle to launch an effective planned giving program that educates, invites and stewards donors.
This webinar by the Gonser Gerber Institute will cover the critical elements to a planned giving program so that you can begin to identify potential prospects, discuss planned gift opportunities through a formalized process, develop dual or triple ask strategies, draft appropriate policies to count and manage these gifts, effectively steward planned gifts, and know when to seek legal advice.
Topics we will cover include:
- Why Planned and Estate Giving is an important tool in your development mix
- Types of Planned Gifts you need to know, understand, and accept as contributions
- What you need to do to start accepting these contributions
- Soliciting, communicating, and recognizing planned giving at your Institution
- Taking your program to the next level
