Whether you call it planned giving or gift planning, helping donors make meaningful gifts from a wide range of assets is easier than you might think. Spend a day with other USM advancement staff for a deep dive into this fascinating (yes, really!) area of philanthropy. Gift planning is for everyone – and involves far more than gifts in wills!
