Gift Planning Fundamentals for Professional Advisors - Empowering Client Philanthropy

Your clients are already donating money to charity, you may find that many, if not most of them, are doing it inefficiently for tax, financial and estate planning success.  We can help you to improve your clients' strategies and grow your own business. 



Philanthropy is a billion-dollar part of the Canadian economy, and on a growth curve that now includes more complexity than ever. Canada’s demographics hold more of their wealth in assets but the charitable sector’s strategy is still stuck in a cash and income mindset. CAGP and the CAGP Foundation are here to help you empower your clients to give more, strategically.

CAGP and Advocis have partnered together to offer Advocis Members the same rate as CAGP Members to access this essential professional development.

Advisors who can effectively help clients engage in effective and fulfilling philanthropy while incorporating the benefits of giving into their financial and estate plan will have deeper client relationships and a competitive marketplace advantage.

Attending the Gift Planning Fundamentals for Professional Advisors will give you:

  • Strategies to help you engage more deeply with existing clients and add value to them as a philanthropic advisor;
  • Tips to grow your book of business and connect with new clients through the philanthropic conversation;
  • A better understanding of new trends in client philanthropy (e.g., advised funds, crowdfunding, social impact movements) as well as how to engage charity sector centres of influence.

This course is ideal for professionals who work in:

  • Estate Law
  • Financial Planning
  • Insurance
  • Financial Investments
  • Personal and Corporate Tax
  • Family Offices
