Effective philanthropic practice neither begins nor ends with writing a check; it requires financial planning and prudent selection of the right giving vehicle to achieve your philanthropic goals. While it is fine to respond in the moment to requests for donations, donors can have more impact with early planning and proactive giving.

This workshop aims to start to start the conversation about how to build giving into a financial plan. This course is best taken by participants who are new to wealth planning and are interested in executing engaged philanthropy.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

1. Explain how engaged philanthropy complements check writing
2. Explore the types of giving available and advantages and disadvantages of each
3. Consider personal decisions in giving
