LEARN ABOUT THIS EVENT
SERVING NONPROFITS FOR 75 YEARS
For over seven decades, LGT has proudly supported the DFW nonprofit community, and one of our favorite ways to give back is through free, high-impact education designed specifically for nonprofit leaders. Our Spring Into Action event offers 3 free CPE hours and the chance to connect with 60 DFW nonprofit leaders over breakfast.
Working with nonprofit organizations is a cornerstone of our business, and we are actively involved in the community. We partner with nearly 200 nonprofit organizations through our internal group that specializes in the unique needs of this sector.
Nonprofits, from small start-ups to well-established organizations, face challenges on many fronts, from navigating regulatory changes to balancing limited resources while pursuing their mission.
At Spring Into Action 2026, you’ll gain practical knowledge, connect with peers who understand the day-to-day realities of nonprofit work, and leave equipped with new strategies and inspiration to advance your mission.

AGENDA
- March 19, 2026
Presented by Charli Pels, Frost Bank
This session will provide a brief overview of bank lending fundamentals for nonprofit organizations, along with a high‑level look at the property acquisition process and the key stages involved in construction financing. Charli will also discuss important considerations nonprofits should evaluate as they plan for real estate projects and long‑term financing needs.
Presented by Justin Thueringer & Amy Witte, ADP
Join us for an engaging discussion on the latest HR trends, emerging priorities, and strategies that nonprofit organizations can leverage to attract, retain, and support their teams. From workplace development and employee experience to technology-driven solutions, this session will provide practical insights to help your organization thrive in the year ahead.
Presented by Babita Sherchan & Chadd Dearen, Lane Gorman Trubitt
Nonprofit teams often juggle big responsibilities with limited staff, which can make them more vulnerable to fraud. This session focuses on practical ways to protect your organization while keeping operations manageable. You’ll learn how to implement segregation of duties on a small team, spot and reduce fraud risks unique to nonprofits, and put internal controls in place that actually work without overwhelming your staff.
