    Presented by: Jennifer Kifer, Holland & Knight

Ms. Kifer helps lead a nationwide practice called the “Bequest Revenue Program” (BRP) that is devoted to representation of charitable organizations in both contested and uncontested trust and estate matters. Through the BRP, Jennifer and her team assist non-profits in accelerating and increasing bequest revenue from gifts left to them in wills and trusts. Since the BRP’s inception about 15 years ago, the Program has cleared more than $1 Billion for H&K’s charitable clients.

    Nonprofit Impact Leadership

    Speaker: Rena Coughlin, Chief Executive Officer

    Since taking the helm as Chief Executive Officer in 2006, Rena Coughlin has focused on strengthening the nonprofit sector. She has made significant progress as the leading nonprofit sector advocate helping governments, philanthropic organizations, and citizens understand the importance and positive impact of local nonprofits-both in quality of life and financially within the region.

With the Board of Directors, she leads strategy, resources allocation, and staff development to sustain and carry out the mission of the Nonprofit Center.

As Special Projects Manager for Leadership Florida, she managed programs and special projects such as gubernatorial debates for the statewide community building organization. Earlier in her career she spent eight years in Washington D.C. as a legislative aide to Senator Bob Graham working on legislation across a broad spectrum of issues important to Florida constituents. Joining the Peace Corps immediately after graduating from the University of Florida, Rena headed to Liberia, West Africa. Working as a volunteer she helped introduce fish farming as a source of protein and family revenue, raised funds to construct a rural medical clinic, and developed a long-term strategy on behalf of the World Bank for Liberian fresh water aquaculture.
