Get Ready for WRPGC 2024-2025: The Premier Gathering for Gift Planning & Nonprofit Leaders!

For over 30 years, the Western Regional Planned Giving Conference (WRPGC) has cemented its reputation as one of the most dynamic and impactful educational experiences for gift planners and allied professionals alike. The WRPGC 2024 delivered cutting-edge charitable planning strategies, breakthrough leadership insights, and innovative approaches to building more inclusive organizations – and it was an absolute smash hit. But 2025 promises to be even more extraordinary, and we need your energy, ideas, and passion to make it happen!

Mark your calendars for the 34th Annual WRPGC, happening May 21-23, 2025, at the Westin South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa. As one of the largest regional planned giving events in the country, this conference draws hundreds of top nonprofit and allied professionals from across Southern California and the Western United States. It’s a rare and unbeatable opportunity to network, share ideas, and connect with key decision-makers who are shaping the future of philanthropy.

Our Annual Sponsorships are designed to bring sponsors and attendees together like never before. By partnering with us, you’ll not only get to showcase your expertise and connect with the right people but also take the stage alongside some of the brightest minds in the field. Our model ensures sponsors can build meaningful connections that last beyond the conference.

Explore the sponsor benefits table and discover how the SoCalCGP Annual Sponsorship will help you engage and inspire attendees throughout WRPGC and beyond.

Join us for WRPGC 2025 – where the future of gift planning takes shape, and your impact begins.
