Dianne Belk, Girl Scouts of the USA: Charitable Chit Chat with Cathy & Claire

Planned giving expert Cathy Sheffield and nonprofit marketing specialist Claire Meyerhoff introduce you to Dianne Belk, Founding Chair of the Girl Scouts of the USA's Juliette Gordon Low Society.

In this lively charitable conversation, they talk about how Dianne, a volunteer, went from planned giving donor to spearheading an effort to ask other Girl Scouts to include the nonprofit in their estate plans. In less than ten years, more than 4,000 Girl Scouts made a planned gift and joined the Juliette Gordon Low Society.

As the Girl Scouts have such a great planned giving success story, Cathy & Claire were eager to have Dianne as a special guest and hear Dianne's insights into peer to peer outreach, the simplicity of "the ask" and elevating the planned giving donor with "exquisite stewardship." As Girl Scouts themselves, Cathy & Claire thoroughly enjoyed this conversation!

If you work in the wonderful world of planned giving, this interview is a must. As Cathy says, every nonprofit should be lucky enough to have a volunteer like Dianne.

Oh, and we learned that one of Dianne's hero's is none other than Dr. Russell James...

We hope you enjoy the interview!

As the Charitable Chit Chat with Cathy & Claire hostesses like to say "it's more than a podcast -- we're your friends in planned giving."
