Tax-Wise Giving your guide to tax-wise charitable giving

To give or not to give? Our only bias is that we believe folks should consider charitable organizations in their financial plans because our tax system encourages us to do so and giving tells the world about our personal values and interests. We especially encourage giving through your estate plan. Consider a Charitable Remainder Trust or Charitable Gift Annuity when selling a highly appreciated asset and definitely make a charitable organization a beneficiary on your IRA, 401K or 457 plan – it is very tax wise!
