What I learned today: if you are open to joining or donating to Amnesty International, you should do it with one of their canvassers that you see in public places. They don’t earn commission but are salaried. If you join or donate online, 18.7% of your donation is allocated to pay for digital ads because they assume an ad brought you to them online. I wonder how widespread is the practice of automatically allocating a portion of donations to buy ads?

This Holiday season, we're looking at tax efficient ways to donate to charity. Did you know?

(Structure Giving) Structured giving refers to relatively largescale giving or philanthropy, for example, through corporate cash donations, or larger scale private contributions that are made on a planned periodic basis. Structured giving is important to charities and not-for-profit organisations as it provides a regular source of income. Structured giving can involve using a financial vehicle designed to enable giving, including: private or public ancillary funds sub-funds and giving circles testamentary or other legacy trusts. Structured giving can also occur without using a dedicated financial vehicle from individuals and families. Please empower our beneficiaries by making a donation. https://lnkd.in/g4g6kStn Please donate. Thank you. #shg #shgacademy
