Philanthropy can accomplish many purposes. You have the ability to strengthen your commitment, preserve cultural resources, assist the disadvantaged, and benefit yourself and your family as well.

Giving through a community foundation can help you:

• Achieve your philanthropic objectives
• Improve your community
• Maximize the tax benefits that charitable donations can provide

Before making any charitable gift, consult with your financial and legal advisors for help in devising a charitable giving plan that is appropriate for you. Once you understand the uses and benefits of making a charitable gift, your professional advisor can arrange a meeting with NWACF staff. NWACF's professional staff can help you achieve the maximum benefit from a charitable gift.
