"Both gift planning and major gift officers often encounter situations where tax consequences impact the type and amount of a donor's gift," says Bull, founder and principal of Philanthropy Advisory Council, LLC. "While you may be conversant in tax lingo, do you truly understand the theory of the underlying tax principles, how the various tax issues interact with each other, and how they affect a gift?"

Benefits of this session:

  • Gain a solid foundation of tax basics.
  • Learn to speak confidently with donors about taxes while knowing your limits.
  • If you invite your major gift colleagues to this session, it will provide you with both a common understanding and avenues for ongoing dialogue and collaboration.
