Future-Proofing

While taking the hubby to the airport this morning, I was struck by how some drivers appear to plan ahead while others seemingly travel in the moment. Those “in the moment” drivers often require quick, multi-lane shifts across traffic unrelated to other road issues/conditions. I wonder if this translates to the life of these drivers. Do driving habits indicate other habits?

I don’t believe Nonprofits are well-served by operating “in the moment.” Instead, planning ahead is vital for successful nonprofits. With the anticipated wealth transfer in the billions occurring over the next 20 years, is planned giving part of your revenue tactics? Here are three informative Planned Giving reads:

Do wealth advisors know you and the work of your organization? If they have clients looking to leave a legacy, your organization can help solve the problem of too many choices. Who in your community needs to know about your impact and long-term sustainability?
