CC -FB Page of wid women in development

WHAT     When presented with a gift of a specialty asset (e.g. gifts of real estate, timberland, farmland, oil, and gas), it’s important for an organization to weigh its desire to build long-lasting relationships with key benefactors and derive financial benefits from these assets. The organization must perform due diligence to evaluate the rules, risks, operational management costs, and all expenses involved in accepting, managing, and sell an asset. Join us as we delve into the world of more complex gifts!
