Professional Advisor Resources

Help Meet Your Client's Charitable Goals

How can working with your local community foundation help your clients achieve their charitable giving goals? As an attorney, financial planner, accountant or other professional advisor, we share the same goals as you: to help your client maximize their charitable and financial goals. We are your trusted resource to help your client better understand the needs of the community and how their giving can make the most impact on the causes they care about. We are your partner in philanthropy.

According to the 2018 U.S. Trust Study of The Philanthropic Conversation, professional advisors who talk to their clients about their charitable goals receive 60% more referrals from clients and have deeper relationships with 74% of their clients.
