Make plans to attend the NIACC Foundation’s Planned Giving Seminar on Thursday, April 28, in the Muse-Norris Conference Center at NIACC. A session for the general public, titled “Seven Secrets to Enhance and Protect Your Wealth,” is available in the afternoon, and a morning session for professionals offers three hours of continuing education credits. The event will offer current information on planned giving presented in an understandable and entertaining manner.
“I’m pleased the NIACC Foundation is able to offer this seminar to help people realize the advantages of estate planning,” said Jamie Zanios, director of the NIACC Foundation.
Presenter Johni Hays, J.D., Senior Planned Giving Consultant of The Stelter Company, is a nationally recognized speaker in charitable gift planning.
“Johni Hays has been a valuable asset to the NIACC Foundation through her consulting work with The Stelter Company. We are fortunate to have her visit North Iowa for presentations to donors and planned giving professionals. This is a ‘don’t miss’ opportunity,” said Zanios.
Hays is the Senior Planned Giving Consultant for The Stelter Company, a national publisher of planned giving newsletters and web products for charities. She has written books on annuities and charitable planning, has been quoted in the Wall Street Journal and has published charitable planning articles in many professional magazines. Hays frequently lectures to groups on estate and charitable planning, probate, living wills, annuities, life insurance, retirement planning and IRAs, as well as income, estate and gift taxation. She previously served as the Executive Director of the Greater Des Moines Community Foundation Planned Giving Institute.
