ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Kroch will focus on how advisors can work with families interested in multigenerational philanthropy. We’ll discuss how to help them achieve family and philanthropic goals, as well as tax-efficient planning. Learn why there is so much interest in multi-generational philanthropy in today’s environment, and what assets and structures work best for family philanthropy? We’ll explore outright gifts, charitable lead trusts, private foundations, donor-advised funds and supporting organizations. We will review the advantages and disadvantages for each structure, including the estate and income tax advantages, as well as the special considerations required when making gifts of S Corporation stock and closely held stock. We will also discuss family dynamics, the need for communication among family members, and how to handle a charitable beneficiary. Finally, we’ll look at the impact of possible changes to the charitable income and estate tax deductions.
