Bookmark This: Guidelines for Counting Charitable Gifts

🔖 Another excellent resource comes from the trusted National Association of Charitable Gift Planners for counting during and apart from #campaigns: https://lnkd.in/eFHwTTM 

📓 Originally completed in 2005, more recent 2021 edition of CGP's Guidelines reaffirms core principles, including counting gifts in three categories:

1. Current #gifts received or #pledged during the reporting period.

2. Irrevocable gifts completed during the reporting period but whose benefit to the #organization will be realized sometime in the future (such as charitable #trusts or charitable gift annuities).

3. Revocable commitments that will take place at the end of the #donor’s life.
