Directions

We invite you to join us the morning of Wednesday, October 28th, for breakfast, networking, and roundtables. Following breakfast and networking, each attendee will have the opportunity to engage in two roundtable discussions.

Our roundtable events offer a unique opportunity to learn from knowledgeable professionals and peers with all levels of expertise in an engaging, conversational setting.  Attendees will gather in small groups with fellow planned giving professionals to discuss a specific topic, share experiences, ask questions, and exchange ideas. Each table will be guided by a facilitator with advanced knowledge of the topic, helping to foster meaningful conversation and provide insight along the way.

Rather than a traditional presentation, roundtables are designed to be interactive which gives everyone the opportunity to participate, learn from real-world experiences, and walk away with practical ideas and new perspectives.

Roundtable topics will include:

  • Balancing Major & Planned Giving
  • Estate Administration
  • Giving through IRAs and DAFs
  • Marketing
  • Metrics and KPIs
  • Partnering with Major Gift Officers
