Cancelled: Top 10 Best Practices for a Successful Planned Giving Program

*This event has been cancelled.

Featured Speaker: Katrina M. Pipasts and Jacqueline Ruth Jordan (Northern Trust)

The success of a planned giving program starts with the commitment of the board of a charitable organization to its fundraising and development initiatives. Planned gifts are complex arrangements involving countless details. This session will address the components of a program’s infrastructure, including policies and procedures, the discipline of accepting and administering planned gifts, the roles and responsibilities of the development staff, the execution of a marketing plan, and measuring the results by analyzing program metrics.

Whether you are new to planned giving or a seasoned professional, this session will offer practical ideas to review your best practices, revisit your gift acceptance policy, understand the basic mechanics of a gift annuity and a charitable remainder trust and recognize how staff and board can collaborate in the cultivation of the donor base. There will be an opportunity to share experiences during a Q&A session following the presentation.
