Welcome to Southern California Council of Charitable Gift Planners!

The Los Angeles Council of Charitable Gift Planners (LACGP) and Santa Barbara Council of Charitable Gift Planners (SBCCGP) have joined forces to become the Southern California Council of Charitable Gift Planners (SoCal CGP)! As we bring together the expertise, resources, and connections of our two councils, we are excited to further our shared goal of promoting best practices and expanding the reach and impact of charitable gift planning in the region. We recognize that our success depends on your success. Through education, research, and advocacy, we will continue to support and serve charitable gift planners as you help donors achieve their philanthropic dreams. Our board and volunteers are working tirelessly to promote best practices and to offer a broader range of innovative, accessible — and more regionally focused — educational and networking opportunities, both virtually and in-person. We are excited by a future with SoCal CGP providing more opportunities for members to connect in person, and we look forward to seeing you all at these future events!
