CGP CONFERENCE

Call for Presentations

Propose a session for CGP Conference 2024!

At CGP Conference, gift planners from across the country get inspired about the importance of their work and are empowered to do it better.

We’re looking for presenters who will help us fulfill these attendee expectations:

  • Observe the National Standards for Gift Planning Success in action at best-practice programs in all types of charitable organizations.
  • Update understanding of factors affecting planned gift decisions, including legislation and regulation, demographics, the economy and national and world events.
  • Expand horizons beyond gifts of cash to activate assets most Americans own in support of philanthropy.
  • Refine understanding of the data that defines progress, including benchmarks, metrics and research findings.
  • Watch great trainers in action and take home tools and teaching strategies to use with fundraising teams or constituents.

We welcome first-time presenters and especially encourage speakers with diverse backgrounds and perspectives to submit proposals. We prefer original presentations, although limited exposure of a session to planned giving councils or other professional groups does not disqualify a submission.

View our submission guidelines to learn more about the peer review and evaluation process. The guidelines also include a submission checklist and additional details what we are looking for.

Submissions can be edited until midnight ET on Monday, March 4.

If you’d like to discuss your proposal, please contact Barbara Yeager at byeager@charitablegiftplanners.org.
