As philanthropists with the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation or Greater Horizons will tell you, there are many reasons to open a donor-advised fund with us. There?s the fact that we don?t require a minimum balance for donor-advised funds, our ability to accept gifts of complex assets, the flexibility of granting to any 501(c)(3) public charity in the country, and the option to use your own financial advisor to manage assets in your fund.?
But one reason that especially resonates with donors here in Kansas City is our ability to connect charitable givers to community needs they care about.?
There are a couple of ways we can do this. First and foremost, our team is here to serve our donors any way we can. Do you need help identifying nonprofit organizations serving children, homeless or animals? We can help research charities. Are you wanting to help disaster relief efforts, but not sure how? We can identify ways to make a difference in affected areas. Would you like to plan a family volunteer day, or help your kids earn service hours? We can put you in touch with nonprofit organizations that can use your family?s time and talent in a fun and meaningful way.
How can you take advantage of these philanthropic services? It?s easy. Just call or email anyone on our team, and we?ll get to work meeting your charitable giving needs.?
We can also help connect you to causes you care about through Kansas City?s nonprofit search. With the help of Kansas City?s nonprofit community, we?ve created a database of more than 625 nonprofit organizations in our region, complete with in-depth information on programs, financials, governance and more. Many of the nonprofit profiles have been reviewed by our team to ensure the information is complete and accurate. (Look for a ?Reviewed? icon at the top of the profile.)
You can use the advanced search feature to find charities by keyword, location or NTEE code. You can also create your own login and save your favorite nonprofit organizations, so they?re easy to find each time you visit the site. Kansas City?s nonprofit search is powered by GuideStar, one of the most comprehensive databases on nonprofit information in the U.S., and ? the best part ? it?s available to anyone, so even if you haven?t opened a donor-advised fund with us yet, you can access the information for free, at your convenience.?
So if you?ve been wondering where (or how) to give, look no further! We?re here to help you change the world for the better, one gift at a time.?
