Opportunities Remain in 2020

Many people use December to make year-end giving decisions and prepare for the upcoming year.  This year, there are numerous planning opportunities that will simply not be available in 2021.  Many high-income and high-net-worth individuals are certainly thinking about these limited opportunities and perhaps even implementing strategies.

As your donors review their plans at year-end, you want to be top-of-mind, so they think to include your organization in those plans!  Use the final few weeks of 2020 to connect with your supporters.  Remind them of your mission and, if the conversation allows, let them know about giving opportunities before year-end.

Hear more from our President, Cayce Powell, in this brief video message.

Historically, two out of every three people we work with create a major gift of estate assets.

Research shows that after someone plans for a major gift of an estate asset, their annual giving increases significantly for many years.
