Give and Take

We’re looking to compile the largest-ever collection of bequest-related stories — and give you and your nonprofit some publicity at the same time. We will be publishing the stories on PlannedGiving.com, MajorGifts.com and on Bequests.com (which we just acquired). Our goal is to teach and inspire. Some of these stories may even be used as examples by presenters nationwide (with your permission, of course). If your story is public, it’s welcomed! What, exactly, are we looking for? Stories about transformative, surprise bequests Bequests that were challenging to get, but paid off A big increase (or decrease) in bequests to your organization Creative bequest marketing Unusual

[An Interview With Viken Mikaelian.] After seeing vendors like Freewill, Nonprofit Docs, LegalZoom and other vendors popularize an online will planning module, it just made sense for us to develop our own. After all, we’re in the planned giving marketing business, and this is just one more way we can help our clients succeed.

Many nonprofits have found a welcome source of revenue through monthly donors in the years since the pandemic. These repeat donors are your best planned giving prospects. Why? You are always on their minds.

Do you know what CGA’s are? Is your non profit offering them? The donor benefits are even more attractive than before, so if your nonprofit is not currently offering CGAs, now is the time to start!
