What is Planned Giving?
As the Canadian Association of Gift Planners defines it; “Planned Giving is the donor-centered process of planning charitable gifts, whether current or future gifts, that meets philanthropic goals and balances personal, family, and tax considerations.”
Planned Giving is not a specific campaign. It is not a short run campaign for a specific cause, but rather a method of fundraising with emphasis on building long term relationships with its prospects and donors as well as its use of specific gift giving vehicles.
