A professor at Texas Tech University and an esteemed academic researcher and author, Dr. James is the chair of the Department of Personal Financial Planning and has published research in more than 75 peer-reviewed scientific and law review articles. \n \nThe idea of legacy gift fundraising makes sense. But it feels a little uncomfortable, right? So how do we actually DO this? What, specifically, do we say? In this session Professor James reviews, step-by-step, the most effective ways to ask for an estate gift for your nonprofit. Connecting experimental research and academic theory with dozens of simple, practical examples, this presentation gives you both the “Why” and the “How” of the words and phrases you will want to use.\n\n \n \nIf you have a membership in more than one of these organizations (HR Gift Planning Council, AFP Hampton Roads or HR Estate Planning Council), please only register with one organization. \n \nWe look forward to seeing you in September! \n  \n \nSpecial Thanks to Our Host\n \n[](https://hrgpc.org/)\n  \nSpecial Partner Sponsors:\n \n[](https://community.afpnet.org/afpvahamptonroadschapter/home)\n \n\n  \n
