CampFire-Chats_OnWhite_Final.png

In an effort to highlight the camaraderie experienced during past Canadian Association of Gift Planners (CAGP) conferences and the opportunity they provided for thoughtful conversations, The Donor Motivation Program® and CAGP created The Campfire Chats. As a result of the ongoing support and enthusiasm through this pandemic for these intimate and insightful 30-minute sessions, our teams at CAGP and DMP are combining forces once again to bring you 12 new Campfire Chats.


Each conversation is 30 minutes in length and will tackle major topics that impact our community. We also want to instil a little fun into these “social” distancing get-togethers and have asked each host and their guest to create a signature beverage. Anything goes!
