About the Brown Bag:

Participants will:
– Grab a bite with other professionals (lunch will be provided) 
– Share their experiences with capturing donor stories – what works and why?
– Discuss how to create the most impact and meaning with video of planning giving donors telling their stories – how they have been touched by the organization, what the organization means to them, how their gift creates a family legacy, how their gift provides for a loved one.
– Leave refreshed!
About the Presenter:
Jane Langa is passionate about the power of Planned Giving and knows that it’s a huge and mostly untapped resource.  Nonprofits are comfortable with a direct Ask to their donors for a variety of gifts of time, talent and treasure, with the exception of asking for a Planned Gift.  Jane will shine a light on the barriers to making Planned Gift Asks and share how to make it a more approachable gift category for nonprofits to engage in.  A veteran in both the nonprofit and corporate sectors, Jane is the co-founder of a nationally recognized business, is a manager (?) at Nonprofit Services Center, consults regularly for a local Foundation, serves on the Board of the Women’s Foundation of Greater St. Louis and is a Commissioner for the City of Des Peres.
