Seasons of Giving – The Philanthropy Planning Cycle
May 13, 2019 | Blog
The most generous distribution of funds is at Christmas time, but philanthropy is more than just the outflow of capital resources. While it is definitely seen as a financial transaction in response to an emotional experience, when we work with our clients, we take a deeper approach to charitable giving. At your philanthropic disposal are four resources – Time, Talent, Treasures and Ties. Throughout the year, you might have more less of these resources at your disposal. Of all of them, only your treasures are renewable, you can’t get time back… so it is important to determine where, when, and how to leverage or invest the other types of capital.
