Overview
Our event year runs September through early June with networking and educational opportunities that benefit all members — from the individual wanting to learn more about the nuts and bolts of charitable gift planning, to the veteran wishing to hone their skills with master class knowledge development opportunities.
A typical session begins with breakfast and networking at 8:30 a.m. followed by an educational session from 9:00 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. Event locations vary to best accommodate our state-wide membership.
Special events include webinars, networking events and our annual full-day conference held each spring.
Fees
The New Jersey Council of Charitable Gift Planners strives to provide educational and networking opportunities at an affordable level. Most events are run on a “break even” basis. General session fees are currently $35 for members and $45 for non-members. Special events and the annual conference vary. The Council is grateful for our many sponsors who help offset our expenses.
As a response to the pandemic, we are hosting virtual events online at no charge. A nominal $10 donation would help to keep these webinars free. Clicking the button will take you to the secure PayPal site to make a donation.
