With rising education costs, saving early can make all the difference. Their team simplifies options to create a plan customized for your family’s ambitions.
Charitable Giving
Making Your Giving Intentional and Impactful
Philanthropy reflects who you are and the change you want to see in the world. Whether supporting a local shelter, funding scholarships, or advancing medical research, supporting causes close to your heart can create profound change. Putney Financial Group is dedicated to helping clients achieve their philanthropic goals through thoughtful strategies and financial planning.
Donor-Advised Funds

- Set up and manage a donor-advised fund
- Identify charities that align with your values
- Help ensure donations are tax-efficient and meaningful
DAFs provide you with flexibility while keeping the charitable spirit at the forefront.

Looking to make a long-term difference? Putney Financial Group specializes in planned giving strategies, helping clients integrate giving into their estate plans. Options include charitable bequests, charitable remainder trusts (CRTs), and endowments. These approaches not only support the causes you care about but also offer financial benefits, such as:
- Reducing estate taxes
- Maximizing contributions
- Creating income streams during your lifetime
By incorporating giving into your life plan, you can turn your vision for change into a sustainable reality.
