Helping Local Wealth Advisors Support Their Clients' Philanthropic Goals
When it comes to charitable giving, trust matters. The Community Foundation understands that the relationships individuals have with their professional advisors are important, so we work to enhance those connections. Through PLAN (our Philanthropic Leaders Advisory Network), we help to give wealth advisors creative solutions and an enhanced range of services they can provide to their clients, all with a goal of building assets for our community.
If you are looking for an accountant, attorney, financial advisor, or other professional—especially when it comes to your estate planning and charitable giving goals—consider contacting one of our PLAN members. To inquire about becoming a PLAN member, reach out to CFA Director of Donor Services Katrina Perkosky at kperkosky@cfalleghenies.org or 814-208-8411.
