GCVS

This event is in the past

This session will provide an overview of the key aspects to consider when introducing gifts in Wills and in-memory fundraising into your plan. Legacies are the largest single source of voluntary income for many charities, however good practice requires a particularly sensitive and caring approach with adherence to ethical and legal good practice. In-memory fundraising is closely related, but is often under-developed within fundraising plans. The session will provide a general foundation to help you to begin.

-understand how to approach legacy and in-memory fundraising

This session will be led by June Burgess, Funding Advice Officer at Glasgow Council for the Voluntary Sector. June has many years' experience as a skilled fundraiser within several well-known Scottish charities and has a particular interest in all aspects of in-memory campaigns and legacy fundraising. June is a member of the Chartered Institute of Fundraising and holds the Certificate in Charity Legacy Administration (CiCLA) from the Institute of Legacy Management.
