Planned Giving Experts Lead Pentera's August Seminar

An all-star lineup of planned giving experts will lead "Building Bridges Between Major and Planned Gifts," this year's version of the popular Pentera Planned Giving Seminar, Aug. 15-17 in Indianapolis.

The presenters include:


  • AndrĂ© R. Donikian, JD, founder of Pentera, Inc.
  • Claudine A. Donikian, JD, MBA, Pentera President/CEO & CMO
  • Frank Minton, PhD, principal of Frank Minton Consulting LLC
  • Bob Coffman, JD, vice president for advancement at Anderson University
  • Joe Bull, JD, executive director of gift planning at Carnegie Mellon University
  • Pamela Davidson, JD, president of Davidson Gift Design
The three-day seminar should be attended by individuals who spend part or all of their time in planned giving and have been in the field for five years or less - and who want to become more effective in securing both future and current gifts using a variety of assets and gift plans. There is a first-day-only option for major gift officers and also development directors who are responsible for both major and planned gifts.

Pentera seminars are considered the best in the profession, renowned for being interactive and entertaining as well as highly informative. Here is a typical evaluation comment: "All of the speakers were engaging, dynamic, and humorous. They were obviously completely knowledgeable in all aspects of the field but were able to present the information on a level that was relatively easy to digest, even for someone new to planned giving."

The Aug. 15-17 seminar is in downtown Indianapolis at the Omni Severin Hotel. Early-bird tuition pricing continues through June 15.
