"I know I should have one, but I can’t find the time…." We hear it often as development officers and executive directors acknowledge the need for a planned giving program and the reality of the pressures of time.

This seminar will help you focus your resources wisely.

If you want to start an effective planned giving program, this seminar is for you.

Who Should Attend?
Development officers, executive directors, board and committee members will all benefit.

The session will answer the following questions:

• Where do we begin at our agency?
• How do we start a planned giving program with little or no budget?
• What kind of policies should we have in place as a board?
• How does the small to mid-size not-for-profit staff for planned giving?
• How do we identify the planned giving prospect base?
• How do we market our planned giving efforts?
• What is the best way to recognize planned giving donors?
• How do volunteers function in a planned giving effort?

Participants will leave the session with the following resources:

1. Sample outlines for planned giving policy development
