Private foundations
Build your legacy of support to stand the test of time with these services:

- Grant administration including due diligence on applicants, grant award processing, state filing and tax reporting

Charitable trusts
Provide support for specific charities by setting up an irrevocable trust in one of two ways
Charitable Remainder Trust – Retain an income stream for your family while donating to your favorite cause.
Charitable Lead Trust – Make ongoing donations to charity, while reducing gift and estate taxes for beneficiaries when they receive the remainder after a set period.
