By 2030, all Baby Boomers will be over age 65! Utilizing retirement assets within a charitable giving plan offers a significant opportunity to maximize philanthropy for donors no matter their worth. The ability for your institution to initiate meaningful donor conversations integrating retirement assets as a philanthropic tool is critical for current and future fundraising success.
