9th ANNUAL BUILDING BLOCKS - 2004



9th ANNUAL
The Building Blocks of a Planned Giving Program


This half-day program is designed to present information useful for every not-for-profit organization. Whether your organization has a designated development officer for planned giving or your organization has a single development officer who must assist in the development of planned gifts in their spare time, or your organization wants to use board members in planned giving efforts, this program can help.

The speakers, recognized both locally and nationally as experts, bring many years of planned giving experience to share in this program combining break-out sessions, lectures, and dialogue presentations. You will meet and develop relationships with experienced planned giving professionals. Learn from Board members how their contribution to planned giving can be a big part of your planned giving program.

Armed with new ideas and new tools, this program will help you reach new donors and to further develop those donors you have already identified.

3. Setting and Evaluating Your Planned Giving Goals

4. Building Bridges to Professional Advisors
Every planned giving program can benefit from good relationships with professional advisors in the community. This session will address three key questions: What are the needs, motivations and desires of the donor-client? What is your role in the charitable gift planning process? How do you build an effective team of advisors that will facilitate gift implementation?
