You can use almost any type of asset to establish or add to a named charitable fund. You can also do your giving today or in the future through a planned or legacy gift. Whatever your philanthropic giving objectives, ACT has the tools and resources to help you be strategic, flexible and effective.

When donors decide to give through ACT, they are provided with the maximum tax benefits allowed by law since we are recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(3) public charity. As always, our staff is available to speak with you and your financial advisor. We look forward to assisting you.
