Why I Give . . .

 

 

“This profession has been extremely good to me. Giving to the Foundation has allowed me, in a very small way, to give something back to the profession and to the public. The benefit of giving to the Foundation is that it is a gift that keeps giving throughout the years to worthy causes."    Bill E. Carter, CFP®, CLU, ChFC

  

 

“It doesn’t make a difference where you sit in the economic structure, the political structure or the social structure, you understand that when low income people thrive, the community thrives and we all thrive. Through my support of the Foundation I can help low income people thrive.”     Glenn Kautt, CFP®, EA, AIFA


 

  
The Mission of the Foundation for Financial Planning is to help people take control of their financial lives by connecting the financial planning community with people in need.  We achieve this by supporting pro bono advice and outreach activities.

The Foundation for Financial Planning is a resource development and grant-making organization and achieves its mission by making grants to other organizations and groups.
