Weather<br />
or Not ...<br />
If you’ve flown the coop for the summer months, it’s<br />
still great weather here for planning charitable gifts with<br />
the Endowment Fund of the Jewish <strong>Federation</strong> of Greater<br />
Naples.<br />
With the stock market in a whirlwind, the climate is<br />
perfect for gifting appreciated stock. Don’t be smog<br />
about it – you could be lightening the taxes on your<br />
capital gain. The forecast for a sunny future is a gift<br />
that will provide increased income for you and build a<br />
slush fund for the Jewish community.<br />
No high pressure. The benefits are clear. We’re hoping<br />
for a blizzard of activity and a heat wave of smart<br />
people planning gifts.<br />
Stop saving for that rainy day! Get cirrus about making<br />
a gift.<br />
Do it monsoon!<br />
For more information on charitable gift planning,<br />
call Jeffrey Feld, President/CEO,<br />
at 239.263.4205.<br />
