As a trusted advisor, you guide your clients towards smart financial and estate planning. We’re here to help you integrate their philanthropic goals within that bigger picture.

Whether your clients are individual philanthropists, foundations or charities, a donor advised can help them:

  • Offload the administrative work of setting up and maintaining a personal foundation
  • Secure a current-year tax receipt while figuring out future plans, and evolve their giving with their changing needs and interests
  • Leverage giving vehicles like gifts of life insurance, securities and holding companies
  • Succession plan or entrust us to steward their fund
  • Develop a giving strategy and portfolio to make lasting change

Many advisors recommend us for our investment pooling approach because it opens doors. With access to asset classes like private equity—typically out of reach for smaller funds.
