I depend on Planned Giving Advisors for timely, accurate and useful philanthropic information and advice. The articles, materials, training seminars and webinars are excellent tools that I benefit from and regularly use in my gift planning program.
I have known Jonathan for almost two decades. He has helped me to successfully navigate numerous challenging situations. I can always count on him for great advice. Jonathan has a genuine passion for Planned Giving and is a joy to work with.
Jonathan Gudema is the consummate planned giving professional. He combines up-to-date technical expertise with sensitivity to a donor’s life situation and interests.
Jonathan Gudema provided planned giving expertise to SUNY Cortland for several years that I used to provide planned giving proposals to our alumni and emeriti. What a pleasure it is to have an expert to bounce ideas off of and to guide you in closing a gift. Jonathan has raised planned gifts so he knows how to deal with potential donors. He is passionate about planned giving and is fun to work with.
Jonathan conducted a total-program assessment for us in 2013, and his sharp observations are helping us focus our activities for a greater ROI with limited staff time. His presentations on planned giving basics to development staff have been valuable.
Jonathan provides practical advise, insight and strategic direction in developing a planned giving program, especially when small nonprofits have limited funds and time to explore the vast opportunity presented in this arena.
Jonathan has been able to articulate the intricacies of gift planning vehicles in a considerate and clear manner to our University and donor(s), and the results continue to be positive.
Jonathan is an extremely valuable resource in the field of planned giving! His expertise will definitely enhance any development office’s planned giving program.
