• Your named fund reflects your charitable values in perpetuity.
• You save time and energy—no paperwork hassles, no accounting, no bookkeeping, no special tax return.
  
• We take care of the details.
• No excise tax.
• No 5% minimum distribution requirement
• No complicated rules and regulations.
  

Remember that we can also serve as a powerful tool for estate planning.
