For Professional Advisors
Help your clients reach their philanthropic objectives by working with CCF and take advantage of our decades of gift planning and administrative expertise. Your clients rely on your guidance to make important financial decisions. When it comes to charitable giving, we can partner with you to simplify their giving and amplify their impact.
Our staff is ready to assist you and your clients with a variety of planned giving techniques to establish or contribute to a fund including CGAs, CRTs, CLTs, IRAs, life insurance, bequests, 401k and other life income tools. We also offer in-depth knowledge of local community issues and needs and can share the latest trends in philanthropy.
If desired, you can maintain investment advisory capacity over your clients’ assets. Any fund with a balance of $1 million or more at inception may invest through their own financial advisor, as long as they comply with CCF’s Investment Policy Statement.
