Planned Giving & Endowment Programs

Developing Programs with Our “Phase In” Approach

It’s smart to start your planned giving program on a part-time basis and phase in your program incrementally. A national survey among 2,978 planned giving professionals confirms this approach.

The survey found that 49% said they spent 25% or less of their time actually engaged in planned giving development activities.

Unless you are in an organization with a long-standing and mature development program, you may not need a full-time planned giving professional on staff as you get started. 

Planned Giving Takes Time

The reality is that building a planned giving program takes time. Hiring a full-time planned giving professional as you start your planned giving program may be an unnecessary expense.

A leading planned giving magazine, Planned Giving Today, reports that the median annual salary for a planned giving professional is in the range of $70,000-$90,000. Is this the investment your organization is willing to make if you aren't ready for a full-time program planned giving professional?

Use Your Organization’s Resources Wisely

Perhaps your organization already has an individual who has the potential to take on planned giving responsibilities in the near future. By using this staff member — plus Doolin Consulting to get started — you can save considerable money, time, and resources.

Where to Start Your Planned Giving and Endowment Program?

Most small to mid-size organizations want to launch a planned giving and endowment program, but don't know where to start. We recommend starting with an experienced firm. One practical solution would be to hire in-house consulting support from Doolin Consulting one day a week for the first year of your program.

Contact Us or Email Us today. We can also "meet" first by phone for a complimentary in-depth phone consultation. Please call Janet Doolin, President, Doolin Consulting, 303.638.1561.
