Interactive Gift Planning Presentations
These presentations are designed to engage and educate individual Unitarian Universalists and congregations about various gift planning options available through the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) Office of Legacy Gifts. In each presentation, a slide show, text, colorful images, animations and audio narration come together to tell the story of how one or more gift plans can help generous donors achieve their financial and charitable goals.
