Make an Impact

We all have a desire to give back and make a positive impact in the world.

By strategically planning your charitable contributions, you can not only support causes that you care about, but you may also receive some financial perks.


One powerful way to do this is by leveraging charitable donations as a strategy to reduce capital gains taxes. It's a "win-win" situation that not only benefits you, but also uplifts the community around you.


If you are looking for ways to reduce capital gains tax, consider making a charitable contribution to the Tallahassee Senior Citizens Foundation and help further our mission. Consult with your financial advisor to make a gift.
