The Community Foundation serving Southwest Colorado is offering a planned giving workshop for local nonprofits this fall: “Planned Giving Basics — What Every Nonprofit Needs to Know.”
This two-hour event will take place in person in Durango on September 27 from 9 to 11am. The cost is $50.
Attendees will learn how to access organizational readiness and how to launch a meaningful planned giving program to attract legacy gifts.
“Philanthropy experts predict in the next 20 years, we will experience the largest wealth transfer in history — estimated to be $84 trillion — as baby boomers pass on assets to their Gen X and millennial heirs,” said Briggen Wrinkle, executive director of the Community Foundation. “We encourage nonprofit leaders to prepare for important conversations with their key donors to attract legacy gifts for the benefit of our communities. This workshop will give organizations the tools needed to help donors share their values with the next generation.”
