Working with Professional Advisors

Estate planners, financial planners, and other professional advisors are often faced with a delicate dilemma:

You want to discuss the many benefits of charitable giving with your clients, but you want to avoid recommending specific charitable causes or organizations. That’s where we fit in. As a community foundation representing the entire region, we are a vehicle your clients can use to address the issues they care about most. At the same time, they will gain the maximum tax benefit under state and federal law.
