CAREER DEVELOPMENT: Between ages 20-30, young adults making modest monthly donations that go a long way toward helping nonprofits cover daily and monthly expenses such as the garbage bill and rent. Dylan recommends, “Donate so it absolutely doesn’t hurt at all! That way you'll never feel like you have to stop.” ESTABLISHED CAREER: During the established career stage of life when larger giving is possible, Dylan recommends consulting with an estate planning attorney. “When you have appreciated assets such as land, a car, or a building and have capital gains considerations, it’s beneficial to have a professional help with tax planning to give you the biggest bang for your buck.” It’s important to match your giving goals and desires with a nonprofit’s work. RETIRED: During retirement years, shifting one’s donation strategy goes along with IRA distributions and pension income. Charitable Remainder Trusts and Donor Advised Funds managed by Fidelity, Schwab, or Edward Jones are tools that can be used. LEGACY: Legacy gifts take the form of funds or assets that are donated from an estate. Dylan says, “If you’ve been a regular and generous donor throughout your lifetime, you can continue to give the gift of stability to your favorite organizations. By providing donations that continue for 3-5 years after death, it gives them time to plan for when that income stream stops.” Nevada County Historical Society: Daniel Ketcham Dan Ketcham has been the president of the Nevada County Historical Society (NCHS) _ for twelve years.
