Working with a Professional Advisor

Educated & Trained

Professional advisors are often the most capable to discuss planned giving.
They are often well-trained, are required to continue in their education, and have strict guidelines placed on them through our national oversight organization, FINRA.  However, charities haven't know how to partner effectively with this community.

Philanthropy International searches for advisors throughout the country that are educated in the charitable market niche.  PI provides an opportunity for these advisors to partner with local charities to impact their community.

This advisor, once connected with a charity, provides the additional "staff" time and expertise needed to move into planned giving.
