Promoting philanthropy for impact
GiftPact Foundation Inc. was launched in 2011 as an innovative, flexible vehicle to help donors make a difference in their communities; and to provide charitable organizations with access to highly experienced asset management services.
Through GiftPact, donors can plan their charitable giving in a way that incorporates expert tax planning, estate planning, and family giving. With a GiftPact fund, donors can plan strategically for short-term and long-term philanthropy while the assets are effectively managed. For donors, GiftPact functions like a family foundation, but without the administrative burden and expense.
For charitable organizations, GiftPact provides access to expertise in portfolio management, tax compliance, and other asset management services, thereby freeing up charities to spend time and energy where they excel the most – in the delivery of programs and services.
