Dear Friend,
Greetings from the South Dakota Community Foundation (SDCF). I am pleased to share with you the latest news from Washington, Savvy Living column, gift stories, finance news and timely articles--as well as SDCF news just below.
We provide this eNewsletter and web site to our friends as a free service. Please feel free to call us at 1-800-888-1842 if we can run a proposal or be of assistance to you.
THE IMPACT OF PROFESSIONAL ADVISORS
It's not always well known, but in many cases, professional advisors are key players in major charitable gifts. Attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, insurance agents and others are often the reason donors feel comfortable making a donation that can be transformational for a community or nonprofit--that comfort can come in recognizing the impact of the gift as well as the prudence in a particular gift and its benefits for the donor.
We at SDCF appreciate the role advisors play and honor them through our Legacy Society. Our Key Club recognizes nearly 100 advisors around South Dakota who have assisted donors in creating funds with SDCF that have a major impact on our state. In a recent SDCF podcast, Hot Springs financial advisor Barb Miller spoke about helping donors make gifts that support the causes they care about as they also benefit and protect their personal interests. Listen to her podcast and read an article about her by clicking here.
