Planned Giving Day Conference Sponsor (limit: two)
Sponsorship Level: $4,000
Planned Giving Day, WPGC’s Annual Conference, gives our sponsors an unparalleled opportunity to reach decision makers in charitable organizations from across the Pacific Northwest. Last year, our Conference and Professional Achievement Luncheon drew more than 170 attendees, most of whom hold positions of authority in their organizations – as board members, executive directors, or directors or managers of planned and major gifts. Attendees also include allied professionals, consisting of attorneys, accountants, and bankers.
The 2013 Conference will be held at the Conference Center in downtown Seattle’s Washington State Convention Center. This location – new in 2012 - was well received by sponsors and attendees alike for its convenient location and professional facility, with a floor plan that offers high-visibility and access to sponsor booths.
Our Conference Sponsors receive recognition equal to their status as our most important supporters, including:
- An opportunity to briefly share information about the sponsoring institution and introduce a speaker at a plenary session,
- High-visibility placement of logo in Conference materials and signage, advertisement space in the Conference booklet, and a central exhibit booth at the Conference,
- Two complimentary registrations for the Conference,
- Two complimentary tickets for the Professional Achievement Luncheon, and
- One complimentary registration at each of our monthly luncheons.
Professional Achievement Luncheon Sponsor
Sponsorship Level: $2,500
In 2012, the WPGC hosted its inaugural Washington Planned Giving Council Professional Achievement Award in Gift Planning. The recipient, selected for his or her lifetime contributions to the gift planning profession, will be honored at a special lunch at the 2013 annual Conference. Our 2012 honoree was Frank Minton.
Our Professional Achievement Luncheon Sponsors receive:
- Special thanks from the podium at the lunch,
- Prominent mention in printed materials about the lunch,
- An exhibit booth at the annual Conference, advertisement space in the Conference booklet and corporate logo on the WPGC website, and
- Two complimentary tickets for the lunch.
WPGC Sustaining Sponsor
Sponsorship Level: $1,500
Like our annual Conference, our Sustaining Sponsor level offers a wonderful opportunity to reach decision makers in development offices throughout the Greater Seattle area. Sponsors at this level choose between receiving a complementary booth at the annual Conference OR recognition at one monthly luncheon (typically draws 50-80 participants, including planned and major gifts officers, and allied professionals).
Our WPGC Sustaining Sponsors receive:
Conference recognition:
- A booth at the annual Conference,
- Acknowledgement in Conference materials,
- Advertisement space in the Conference booklet, and
- Corporate logo on the WPGC website.
OR Monthly Luncheon recognition:
- Recognition in their month’s luncheon registration email,
- The opportunity to briefly describe their organization and introduce the featured luncheon speaker,
- Advertisement space in the Conference booklet, and
- Corporate logo on the WPGC website.
WPGC Sponsor
Sponsorship Level: $1,000
We recognize that many of the organizations that want to express their commitment to the WPGC are unable to attend the Planned Giving Day Conference. While they do not need the sponsor booth or a complimentary registration, they would like recognition that comes with other sponsorship levels. For this reason, we have created a “WPGC Sponsor” level. Our sponsors are recognized at a monthly lunch meeting during the year, receive acknowledgement in Conference promotional materials, and have their corporate logos included on the WPGC website. Sponsors also have an opportunity to include an advertisement in the Conference booklet (given to all attendees).
Virtual Seminar Sponsor
Sponsorship Level: $500
The WPGC is affiliated with the Partnership for Philanthropic Planning, the leading nationwide organization for gift planning professionals. Each year, the PPP offers six “Virtual Seminars” – webinars featuring nationally recognized experts discussing topics of interest to gift planning professionals. We are seeking sponsors to be recognized for each of the year’s six virtual seminars (please note: sponsorship does not require/include hosting the seminars).
Each 2013 Virtual Seminar Sponsor will receive:
- Prominent mention in one virtual seminar announcement (sent to all WPGC members),
- Corporate logo included on the WPGC website,
- Advertisement space in the Conference booklet, and
- Acknowledgement in Conference promotional materials.
