Welcome
Join the conference faculty for this opening panel session as they’ll introduce themselves, and share background and experiences working on transformational gifts. We will also begin exploring the topics further by defining what “transformational gifts” are and aren’t. We’ll also talk about the current state of transformational giving to education, future trends, and common misconceptions about such gifts. Lastly the faculty will offer you their advice on how you can get the most out of this conference.
