Amanda and Stan join me today to describe how the North Texas Community Foundation allows clients to make an impact with their money before or after exiting their business. They share how owners should plan for charity and the organizations they can support. They discuss what a donor-advised fund is and why it’s a popular tool used by many philanthropists. They also explain how they help clients find the charities they can impact the most and what would happen if the owners wanted to donate internationally.
