Year End Charitable Solutions
Are you planning to make a charitable gift in 2023? We can help.
Ways We Can Help With Your Year-end Giving
Start a Donor Advised Fund
A donor advised fund (DAF) accepts a variety of assets and offers you the convenience of supporting charitable organizations when and where you choose.
Stock transfers
If you plan to use securities for charitable gifts, you are encouraged to make your request of gift transfers from your advisor well in advance of December 31st in order to meet the deadlines of different brokerage firms. Stock transfer instructions and staff assistance are available.
Qualified Charitable Distributions
If you are 70 1/2 or older, you can make a charitable gift directly from a taxable IRA and potentially avoid being pushed into a higher tax bracket
Qualified Charitable Distributions
