THE TRISKELES FOUNDATION AND YOU:
YOUR CARING LEGACY:
You have an opportunity to make a real difference creating a better tomorrow. Philanthropy (“the love or wisdom of humanity”) means more than writing a check. It means consciously connecting your ideals and motivations with organizations you wish to support. By creating a fund in the Triskeles Foundation, you can ensure that your personal resources are put to use in ways that accomplish both your charitable and financial goals.
You Need a Triskeles Foundation Donor Advised Fund if:
- You may have considered establishing a family or private foundation (it is much cheaper and more efficient to set up and operate a Donor Advised Fund)
- You like making choices about grants and giving
- You have received an inheritance or other financial windfall and want to make gifts over time, but need a current, year-end tax deduction
- You want to teach family members about giving over time, using a practical, flexible tool
-
You wish to be actively engaged in social change philanthropy
