Stephen Reiches – How to Go From Writing a Check to Being Strategic About Philanthropy
In this episode, Shari talks with her husband of 35+ years, Stephen Reiches, about strategic charitable giving. Most often people make donations by writing a check. Stephen and Shari discuss more tax-efficient ways to give, such as donating appreciated stock, using a Donor Advised Fund and making Qualified Charitable Distributions from an IRA. They also talk about legacy giving (gifts effective upon death).
