As fundraisers, we know that navigating the challenges of legacy giving can be difficult. We also know monthly givers have the highest potential and probability of making legacy gifts.

In this episode, Lynne Boardman and I delve into not just the how, but the why and the what of legacy giving. Lynne shares her valuable insights and practical advice on how to make legacy giving an integral part of your fundraising strategy.

You'll learn about the potential pitfalls, the surefire strategies, and most importantly, how to sustain and grow your legacy program.
