Professional Advisors

Whether you’re an attorney, accountant, financial planner, investment manager, or other professional advisor, our goal is the same as yours: to help your clients create a giving plan that maximizes both their charitable and financial goals.

As your partner in philanthropy, the Community Foundation of Louisville is a trusted resource and extended member of your team. Our purpose is not to take your place, but to help your client better understand our community’s needs and how their giving can make the most impact on the causes they care about.

As a professional advisor, you know that good planning requires good tax planning information.

Changing property values, fluctuating investment returns and tax law updates require proper planning for the future. We invite you to simplify the process for you and your clients and visit our new gift planning website for valuable and timely information.
