Jerry was the very definition of a gentleman! A giant in the philanthropy world, his presence will surely be missed. Grateful for his lasting impact on his family, community, the philanthropic industry and its professionals. We're all better for knowing Jerry!
Qualified professional leveraging years of successful leadership of administrative assistance for prominent firms.
It is with a heavy heart that I share the news of the passing Jerry Linzy. He was not only an exceptional leader but also a mentor, guiding and inspiring so many of us with his wisdom, kindness, and vision. He had wonderful stories, and never forgot a special occasion. We will miss him dearly. https://lnkd.in/gCTbdpVm

A box of loose gears is as ineffective at displaying the time as an unintegrated system is for organizational growth. This is known as the silo effect, various parts of a system operating independently of others. In the nonprofit sphere, the aspects often siloed include fundraising, program expansion, infrastructure upgrades, emergency funds, public relations, etc. Read Eddie Thompson's new post to discover what his experience has revealed as the seven essential elements that work together to create an integrated growth system! https://lnkd.in/e9h-KxSh

Millions of Americans make estate gifts to charities hoping that long after they are gone these nonprofits will use the money they donate to advance causes they care for. But many financial institutions are frustrating donors’ wishes by erecting barriers to a charity collecting on a donor’s gift—to the financial institution’s own benefit. Financial institutions have draconian practices that equate to holding a charity’s gift hostage. Join Johnine (Johni) Hays for a webinar on Thursday, September 5 at 12:00 pm Central to hear the different ways nonprofits across the country can push back together.

Executive VP Ken Turpen, CFRE, FCEP living the good life, attending an educational session with an amazing group of people at the Charitable Gift Planners of Kentuckiana, held at the Central Kentucky Community Foundation. What an honor to do this kind of work with talented and committed professionals!
I had the privilege of attending the Kentuckiana Planned Giving Council educational meeting today at the #CentralKentuckyCommunityFoundation in Elizabethtown. I always enjoy pulling into their driveway as there slogan warms my heart. Shouldn’t every nonprofit have signage like this? “Home of Philanthropy.” Love it! Let me know what you think. #plannedgiving #ThompsonandAssociates. #philanthropy

"Leaders of successful nonprofits think like farmers; it’s all about sowing and reaping.

"Old school principles can only thrive in the changing climate by adapting through new school elements. Some of those are the results of evolving taxation and inheritance laws.
