Establish Family Foundations

Creating a Family Foundation positions your philanthropic efforts to exist into perpetuity, creating a multi-generational place for familial giving that can be decided around your unique priorities. GPG will work with you and your family to create a mission statement which will streamline your foundation giving and create a strategic plan for giving based on near-term and long-term goals. As your home office for family philanthropy, we will handle the financial, tax and legal logistics of establishing the foundation and the annual maintenance; our firm will even invest the money to generate the highest possible return. When it comes to giving gifts, we offer a comprehensive training from the basics to specifics on nonprofits and best practices in philanthropy, including policies and procedures for grantmaking and board development, assessing the foundation’s staffing needs and recruiting for roles, and overseeing board governance and operations. Our work is focused on relationships and impact, and when it's applicable, this involves engaging and coaching the next generations of the family on philanthropy, too.
