The Community Foundation of North Central Florida promotes community transformation through the power of philanthropy.
Happy (early) Fourth of July!
In this issue, we’re covering topics that tend to be popular as we head into the second half of the year. The summer months are a great time to evaluate your charitable giving plans and also ensure you’re coordinating with your advisors to accomplish key estate and financial priorities before the year-end rush is upon us.
The team at the Foundation wants to help you help your advisors stay up-to-date on legal and tax developments that might impact the charitable giving components in your estate and financial plan. We’re happy to offer tips and reading material in this issue to share with your attorneys, accountants, and financial advisors.
Whether you’ve been involved in philanthropy for many years or you're just starting out on your charitable giving journey, you’ve likely noticed there are many, many ways to support the causes you love. The Foundation can help you evaluate various giving vehicles based on your own “charitable giving personality type.”
Plus, in this issue, news and announcements from the Foundation!
Whether you’ve already established a fund at the Foundation, arranged a bequest to the Foundation, or are currently evaluating whether to work with the Foundation, we are here for you! Please reach out anytime to review your charitable plans. We’re here to help you make a difference in our region and support local nonprofits working every day to improve the quality of life for so many people. Thank you for the opportunity to work together!
Have a Safe and Happy Fourth of July!
