Women’s ability to contribute and make a lasting impact in philanthropy is often over looked and under-utilized. In truth, women are driving many of the philanthropic decisions in this country. Research tells us that women behave differently than men in their philanthropic giving. We cannot assume what works for men will be applicable to women. This session will outline key considerations for success when soliciting planned gifts from women, including understanding the differences between men and women donors, understanding key motivators for women donors, and how to steward and recognize women’s gifts.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand the importance and untapped capacity of women’s philanthropy

2. Understand the different motivators for giving between men and women and know how to apply them when asking women for planned gifts

3. Have tips and techniques to use when soliciting planned gifts from women donors
