Why is giving to the Foundation better than donors managing their own gifts to charity?

The Foundation offers advantages to potential donors:

• The Foundation is able to manage funds in ways that are not practical for the average donor. For example, you can create a named scholarship fund to honour an individual in prepetuity.
• Long after donors have passed on, their gifts will be managed as they directed.
• If a gift is in the form of securities, there may be a unique tax advantage to a donor gifting to the Foundation.
• By combining gifts, the Foundation is able to gain the advantage of professional managed funds.
• A full accounting of the disposition of all grants is provided each year by the Foundation.
