Planning During a Bear Market

Oct 7, 2008

The turbulent stock markets have caused many donors to worry about their charitable gift planning for 2008. Like you, we are hopeful that the worst is over and that the stock markets will begin to go up. However, did you know that there are tax planning opportunities that are most advantageous when the markets are down? Now can be a great time to think about your goals. Our staff is glad to discuss your gift planning options with you or your tax advisor. Even though it is an uncertain time in many respects, charities need the support of loyal donors now more than ever. Let us know if we can help you with creative giving ideas. That is one reason CCF is here!

Those who would administer wisely must, indeed, be wise, for one of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity.”

— Andrew Carnegie
