Legacy Planning
Impactful legacy giving requires mindful legacy planning. Key considerations include setting impact priorities, time involvement, level of engagement (if any) with grantees, and level of involvement with family members. Even a simple review of legacy priorities can help to ensure a lifetime of positive impact that fits your priorities.
Grantee Support
To ensure that grantees have success and impact long after your grant or project ‘investment’ closes, it’s vital to also support capacity building. With minimal set-aside funds, Mpower works alongside nonprofit leadership to build team capabilities, guide effective programs, and ensure strong impact measurement and communication to share results with the world.
Legacy Giving
Major donors often have questions about the best vehicle to securely shepherd and allocate giving to ensure a lasting legacy. Is it best to establish a family foundation, family office, Donor Advised Fund or other vehicle? Should you consider a DAF with a corporate or community foundation? What about complex giving? Charitable Remainder Trusts? The list goes on. Mpower helps to frame these options in simple terms based on broad, hands-on experience with giving for impact.
