Synopsis
Gifts are a vital source of funding for charities of all sizes. While some gifts are given without conditions or limitations, many come with restrictions on how or when they may be used. Bryan Millman and Liz Moxham explore the unique challenges associated with restricted gifts, including reasons for accessing restricted funds, considerations for re-purposing an otherwise restricted gift or encroaching on capital, and best practices for planning restricted gifts.
This valuable opportunity is a chance to deepen your understanding of restricted gifts, expand your network, and further your professional development. We look forward to seeing you in person or online!
