As more uncertainty rattles the markets, it’s more important than ever to make planned giving an integral pillar that sustains your organization and helps weather the storm. Focusing on legacy giving creates long term stability.
More importantly, it will also cater to donors and prospects who may feel too stretched to give right now, but are more receptive to give by other means. The whole idea of “make a gift now with no impact on your day-to-day cash flow” is more attractive than ever.
