"One of the most rewarding parts of my job working with high net worth families is helping them reach their philanthropic goals. PPPN has not only given me the tools to discuss with my clients the most innovative techniques in philanthropic planning but also allowed me to develop lasting relationships with gift planners that have become an invaluable resource to me and my clients."Mindy Hirt, MBA, CFP ®

"Helping people achieve their philanthropic goals is a rewarding – if often challenging – task. In an environment of shifting tax laws and innovative new strategies, clients and donors have high expectations. The need for expertise in charitable gift planning has never been greater. The Partnership for Philanthropic Planning of Nashville's monthly programs are engaging, strategic, and designed for impact, with speakers who provide advanced training that normally would cost many times the price of a PPPN luncheon."

"In today’s world we need every planned giving resource available to teach newcomers, to remind old hands of the basics, and to put forth new ideas. We look for opportunities to develop peer relationships and to share common gift planning problems and successes. We also must keep abreast of ever-changing federal regulations. Thanks, PPPN for being the number one resource for fulfilling all those needs in a fun yet professional environment!"
