January 22, 2027: Entrusted

Our 2027 Entrusted gathering will bring together generous women from across Georgia for a luncheon featuring Aimee Minnich, NCF Board Member and Co-Founder and Chief Impact Officer of Impact Foundation, and Mary Cernilli, Director of Investment Offerings at NCF.

Together, they’ll answer questions generous givers have about how they can pursue their giving goals and potentially create greater impact by investing their charitable gifts.

Registration is now open, and we’d be honored to have you join us.

We will be hosting a livestream gathering in St. Simons at the same time as our live event in Atlanta. If you’re in the Brunswick or coastal area and would like to join, please contact Becky Livingston at blivingston@ncfgving.comopens in a new tab to learn more.
