There is a major transfer of wealth happening right now as Baby Boomers begin establishing plans on passing down their wealth to their children and grandchildren, as well as their philanthropic goals. At the Community Foundation, we’re here to help you figure out the best way to smoothly distribute your wealth to the causes that matter most to you. #LiveGiveLoveSJ #CharitableGiving #Philanthropy
Although recurring donations offer predictable cash flow for organizations, the processing fees and administrative burdens can disproportionately affect charities. By giving one substantial annual contribution to each of your favorite charities, you can maximize impact while reducing operational costs for the charities. #LiveGiveLoveSJ #CharitableGiving #Philanthropy

Charitable contributions can only be deducted if you itemize your deductions. As you look at 2025 and beyond, check with the community foundation about how your donor-advised fund can help you cross the itemization threshold while still carrying out your multi-year annual giving plans #LiveGiveLoveSJ #CharitableGiving #Philanthropy
The Camden Food Fund, housed within the Community Foundation of South Jersey, was able to provide four character-based loans to four city restaurants as part of a pilot program. The Breakfast Palace was one of those four locations, and the funds helped them open a new location after having issues with the previous one. We are so grateful to support the Camden Food Fund as they continue their mission to aid the local food industry. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eabExFCx #LiveGiveLoveSJ #CharitableGiving #Philanthropy
