The Future of Philanthropy: Strategies for a Changing Landscape

NOCGP’s annual Planned Giving Day Conference brings together nonprofit professionals, fundraisers, financial advisors, attorneys, and other professionals who help donors achieve their philanthropic goals.

The conference provides practical education, fresh ideas, and opportunities to connect with others in the charitable gift planning community.

What You’ll Learn

Planned Giving Day explores the strategies and tools that can help you build stronger planned giving programs and better serve your donors.

Topics may include:

• Fundraising Strategies – Learn ways to identify, engage, and cultivate planned giving prospects.
• Planned Gift Options – Explore bequests, charitable trusts, gift annuities, life insurance, and other giving strategies.
• Legal & Tax Considerations – Understand important estate planning, tax, and legal considerations related to charitable gifts.
• Donor Conversations – Discover effective ways to talk with donors about their values, goals, and charitable legacy.
• Trends & Best Practices – Take away new ideas, practical strategies, and insights you can put to work.

Connect With Your Peers

Planned Giving Day is more than education. It’s an opportunity to meet fellow gift planners and nonprofit professionals, exchange ideas, share experiences, and build lasting professional relationships.

Whether you're new to planned giving or an experienced professional, you'll find opportunities to learn from others and bring new ideas back to your organization.
