Elective Session
Processing gifts can often feel like a game of jelly belly jelly bean roulette- not sure what flavor you are going to get! In this session, we'll dive into the complexities of managing tricky gifts such as Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs), private and family foundations, IRA/QCDs, Gifts-In-Kind (GIKs), cryptocurrency, and Quid Pro Quos (QPQs). We'll also explore concepts like bifurcation, discuss platforms like Benevity, and wrap it all up with a "Most Bizarre Gift" contest. Please bring your questions and join us for a fun, interactive look into the wacky world of gift processing!
