Donor Advised Giving Is a Win/Win

This week the Wall Street Journal ran an insightful article on the advantages of donor advised funds, and why many donors are transferring the assets from their private and family foundations to them. You can find it here:

Let me take this opportunity to shamelessly plug North Star Fund's program.

North Star Fund has a longstanding donor advised program that works with individuals, families and larger foundations to develop finely-tuned strategies that strengthen community life in New York and around the country, and helps to support the leaders leading the movement for equality and economic justice. Because of our close relationship to the wide spectrum of grassroots community organizing groups in New York, we can recommend strong matches to your giving priorities.

In addition to our strategic grantmaking, our well trained professional staff stays on top of the changing environment of donor advised regulation by the IRS through our advisors and our membership in the Council on Foundations.

It's a win/win situation. You save time and money on the administrative work, and you put your money to good, smart, edgy, effective use. To learn more, give me a call at (212) 620-9110.
