At the heart of it, financial advisors and philanthropic planners have the same purpose. We both help people direct their money in a way that reflects their values.

At FCFP, we regularly work with financial advisors, attorneys, CPAs, and their clients—our donors. Together, we explore how we can meet financial goals and serve community needs in one effort.

Bring us in at the beginning of the conversation and we all benefit.
