Giving Priorities
In determining whether charitable giving should be part of your financial planning, consider your response to the following questions:
- Are there charitable organizations that you regularly support?
- Would you like to include any of these organizations in your financial or estate plan?
- If there was a way to shift dollars from taxes to charity, would you be interested in exploring the options?
If you answered “yes,” to any of the prior questions, then allow us to join you in creating a donor-advised fund or a legacy gift to benefit your favorite charity, nonprofit, faith community or others.
