Join us for a Virtual New Member Orientation on Wednesday, March 20th from 1:00-2:00PM!
Come learn more about all that VAFRE has to offer, get to know other members, and learn about how to become more involved. This session is designed for those who have been members for one year or less.
This event is FREE, but please let us know if you plan to attend and register by Monday, March 18th.
Get ready to dive into the dynamic world of planned giving with Geoffrey Close, Founder of IMPACT Philanthropy Partners. Forget the dry, textbook approach—Close brings his real-world experience as a former Wealth Advisor at Morgan Stanley to the table. Drawing from actual client cases, he'll unveil the secrets to successful gift planning without ever compromising confidentiality.
After the session, you will be better equipped to help identify the donors’ issues, suggest possible solutions, and use philanthropic planning to help donors meet their aspirational goals to support your organization, all the while, benefitting them financially.
Approved for 1.25 hours of CFRE credit.
Geoffrey Close, IMPACT Philanthropic Partners

Come sip on a cup of coffee (or tea) and enjoy a morning of networking and building connections. This is a free event, but please RSVP so we know how many to expect. Can't wait to see you there!
