	Don’t get so caught up in present funding needs that you neglect future funding for your nonprofit. As the economy continues to stumble, gifts from estate plans become more important. Donors have less disposable income to give right now but they still want to support your organization. Build on that relationship through a Planned Giving program. If you haven’t started a Planned Giving program yet, find out what you’re missing. In any economic climate, Planned Giving programs build endowments, cement lifelong relationships with donors, and create a long-term stream of income. This webinar will help kick-start your organization's Planned Giving program. Our presenter, Tony Martignetti, has been building and growing Planned Giving programs for more than 14 years. He will give you a plain-language explanation of how estate and retirement planned gifts help build your endowment and protect the future of your nonprofit's important work. Here's what he'll cover: What is Planned Giving? What gift options are available? Who are the best prospects for planning gifts? How do we promote Planned Giving? This is an interactive webinar, so plenty of time will be allowed for your questions.
