It should help donors fulfill their charitable intent.</font></strong> <font style="font-size: 15px;" color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif">Many nonprofit professionals rarely consult their organization's Gift Acceptance Policy because it is overly long, filled with legal jargon, out of date, or written primarily to identify reasons to decline gifts. Yet a well-designed Gift Acceptance Policy should do more than manage risk. It should help you confidently navigate complex gifts, streamline decision-making, and create pathways for donor generosity. In this highly practical session, participants will learn how to distinguish essential policy provisions from unnecessary complexity and explore ways to transform their GAP into a fundraising asset rather than an administrative obstacle.</font></p> <p style="line-height: 20px;"><strong><font style="font-size: 15px;" color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif">BRING YOUR GIFT ACCEPTANCE POLICY WITH YOU</font></strong></p> https://ppgc.net/event-6721694 https://ppgc.net/event-6721694
