		<description><![CDATA[I described the technical differences between donor-advised funds (DAFs) and private foundations back in June of 2007. Frankly, at the time, I saw no compelling reason seriously to consider creating a DAF. Following the FoundationWiseSM conference, however, I&#8217;m seeing more reasons than I did back then to consider this alternative. To recall the few reasons [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you own a business, I&#8217;m sure you have heard about the value of incorporation. It is supposed to protect you, personally, from lawsuits . . . or, at least, from the potential effects of lawsuits. As Allan Branch writes: The Corporate Veil is the legal shield that protects an individual from being personally liable [...]]]></description>

Lately I&#8217;ve begun to learn about something called a &#8220;supporting organization.&#8221; Yesterday I met with Doug Johnson, president of a relatively new community fund here in the Denver metro area that is called, simply, The Charitable Fund or TCF.

While we&#8217;re talking about all of our structures anyway, I figured we should talk about our next steps in terms of legacy planning.
