Presented by Philanthropy Massachusetts
You may have had introducing a legacy giving program on your wish list for your development program for some time. Maybe you already have a legacy giving society but have no idea how to promote and attract planned gifts. Or you wonder why all of the larger organizations are getting planned gifts, but you aren't.
This workshop teaches organizations how to introduce a planned giving program, and to do so at no additional cost. Learn how your supporters can perpetuate their annual support beyond their lifetime. You can help all of your donors become philanthropists by inviting them to make a provision in their estate plan that provides both benefits to them and long term support for your mission.
It's time to get your share of legacy giving. Join us to make this sustainable funding source a reality for your organization.
