UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS EXECUTIVE TO HEAD STATEWIDE CHAPTER OF PLANNED GIVING PROFESSIONALS
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Hugh R. Kincaid, director of planned giving at the University of Arkansas, has been elected president of the Arkansas Chapter of the National Committee on Planned Giving.
Kincaid succeeds Cathy H. Mayton, of Little Rock, executive vice president of the Baptist Health Foundation, who becomes immediate past president.
The National Committee on Planned Giving (NCPG) is a professional association for some 11,400 men and women who develop, market, and administer charitable planned gifts. Planned gifts in Arkansas alone run into the tens of millions of dollars every year to such charitable organizations as churches and synagogues, colleges and universities, hospitals, volunteer organizations and service agencies.
Other officers elected were:
Vice president and president-elect, Robert P. Plummer, of Little Rock, senior vice president and manager of the trust division at Pulaski Bank and Trust
Secretary, Cynthia Van Winkle, of Maumelle, senior vice president for development and communications at Dawson McAllister Association
Treasurer, Bill R. Huffman Jr., of Little Rock, senior tax manager with Moore Stephens Frost, CPAs
The Arkansas chapter of the NCPG keeps its 77 members abreast of changes in estate and gift planning techniques, including estate tax law and a variety of other mechanisms for integrating charitable gifts into estate plans. The chapter also focuses on the continuing education of its members by bringing in top speakers and utilizing technology to reach out.
At its last meeting, members viewed a satellite seminar on the basics of planned giving, featuring Ronald E. Sapp, a gift planning consultant and former director of planned giving at Johns Hopkins University. The seminar was beamed from the national offices of NCPG to members meeting at two sites: Children's Hospital in Little Rock and WestArk Community College in Fort Smith.
