One of the most rewarding parts of the work we get to do is helping clients understand their financial capacity. Not just capacity to save and invest for their future but the capacity to live life today and help those in need. Our goal as a firm is continue to expand our ability to give back as our capacity grows. We love supporting our community partners and partnering with our clients to support the organizations that they are passionate about! I find giving is a state of mind and not the state of your balance sheet. What is your giving plan for 2024?

#donoradvisedfunds funds (#DAFs) and the East Bay Community Foundation mission-based funds are a great way to give to your local community. Consider making an online cash gift if you want it to count towards possible 2023 tax deduction. Otherwise, consider your philanthropy budget for 2024 and start preparing in January - that way you can fund your favorite cause areas in a steady manner throughout 2024 without having to wait until year-end. A #philanthropy budget is a great way to stay on target with your mission-based interests & cause areas versus responding to “asks” throughout the year and realizing you might have budget shortfall for areas you personally care about. #donoradvisedfunds #donors #taxdeductions #missiondriven

An oldie but goodie! We often hear about how Andrew Carnegie and Cornelius Rockefeller changed philanthropy, but there are so many other people in our nation’s history that helped change the way we raise money and give charitable donations. In this episode, host Kevin Dean will present the untold stories of philanthropy through the years in the United States, from mutual aid societies of the 1700s to modern day. How does the first published book on philanthropy in the United States relate to the Salem Witch Trials? Why was Brown vs. Board of Education not considered a total victory by the NAACP? What does Ben Franklin have to do with matching gifts? Find out as we jump around in history to chronicle some people who changed philanthropy for good (and some for the not-so-good). https://lnkd.in/gqCsuhD8

Statistics say a lot about the challenges of home affordability in the Midwest. “1 in 9 households in Wisconsin spend half or more of their income on housing,” reported Greater Fox Cities Area Habitat for Humanity in their 2023 annual report. “There is a shortage of over 126,000 affordable rentals available for extremely low-income families in Wisconsin.” To help mitigate this crisis in the community they serve, local Malarkey Certified Residential Contractor, American Quality Homes, donated their time and labor for the installation of a new roof on a new home built by Habitat for Humanity. With assistance from Northeast Wisconsin Malarkey Sales Representative Maximilian Crookston, a complete system of roofing products was donated in the fall of 2023.

Cast your vote! Four amazing nonprofits have been nominated to receive our September to November, 2023 donation, but we need your help to decide the winner. This is your chance to make a difference and have a say in which organization will benefit from this incredible opportunity. Arkansas Womens Outreach - AWO promotes the wellbeing of local homeless women through access to the basic items women need such as period products, underwear, wipes and condoms. AWO directly impacts the homeless community of our state by creating initiatives, programs, systems, and communities that respond collaboratively and respectfully to homeless women. Weekend Theater - Ticket sales account for approximately 67% of the Weekend Theater’s annual operating budget. In addition to ticket sales, donations and grants play a huge role in allowing the theater to function by funding small staffing roles, required fees for the copyrights of a play to perform and materials necessary to build sets. By financially supporting the Weekend Theater, you are not only investing in the theater itself, but investing in changing the world one play at a time. Gigi's Playhouse - We change lives through the consistent delivery of free educational, therapeutic-based, and career development programs for individuals with Down syndrome, their families, and the community in Central AR. Literacy Action - Literacy is often taken for granted, but for many in our community, it is a gateway to a brighter future. Unfortunately, illiteracy is a significant challenge in Arkansas, and it disproportionately affects individuals from low-income backgrounds. One of the most remarkable aspects of Literacy Action is their commitment to providing free services to all. Their unwavering dedication to keeping their programs accessible ensures that the barrier of cost is eliminated for those who are striving to improve their literacy skills. This inclusivity not only promotes equity but also gives every member of our community an opportunity to thrive.
