What Is Philanthropy and Gifting?

Philanthropy and gifting involve the strategic planning and execution of charitable donations to support causes you care about. This process goes beyond simple donations, incorporating tax-efficient strategies to ensure your contributions have the greatest possible impact while aligning with your overall wealth management plan. Effective philanthropic planning allows you to create a meaningful legacy, support your community, and instill values of generosity in future generations. It is a thoughtful approach to giving that integrates your financial objectives with your desire to make a difference.
