Welcome to The Greater Toronto Area Chapter!
CAGP GTA is dedicated to advancing strategic charitable gift planning through professional development and networking. We bring together fundraisers and donor advisors (lawyers, financial advisors and accountants) to connect and share knowledge of current issues in gift planning.
We host monthly lunch education sessions, where our members network and learn from a variety of expert speakers in the field. CAGP members receive a registration fee discount and can also purchase an Express or Flex Pass for regular attendance. Learn more about upcoming GTA Professional Development Sessions.
We offer local members (both new to the field and experienced) the opportunity to connect through our unique Mentoring Program and special Social Events.
From May to September, we also host our annual LEAVE A LEGACY™ Public Information Series. We are committed to raising community awareness of legacy estate giving across the GTA.
Our Chapter is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. We encourage you to meet our Executive Committee and get involved in one of our many committees. Please feel free to contact our Executive directly, if you are interested or would like more information.
