How Reduction in Tax Incentives has Affected Charitable Giving
Some say minor effect because giving has continued to increase
Other say total giving is lower than it would have been with retention of incentives
![Page 14: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

My Position
Tax incentives seldom motivate giving, but they influence the amount, type, and timing of gifts
Thus, we should continue to educate for measures that would stimulate giving
![Page 15: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

Extending Life Through Science
Imagine a world where aging has been abolished, where you can run a marathon at age 94, and start a new career at age 110, where replacing a heart, liver, or kidney grown from your own body cells is as common as a knee or hip replacement is today.

What a Gift Planner Can Offer
An extension of life through a charitable legacy

Why do stressed trees often produce an abnormally heavy crop of seeds?
![Page 35: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

Humans, like these trees, as they approach the end of life also focus on legacy.
Biological Legacy – genes transmitted to heirs.
Cultural Legacy – through creations and
charitable gifts that perpetuate one’s name,
values, and influence.

Some people have a bucket list
Hike the Himalayas See Machu Picchu Parachute Swim on the Riviera Go on a safari
This list is backward looking

Other people have a fountain list
This list is forward looking, as it refers to what will flow from our life.

How do you talk to donors about issues that remind them of mortality?
![Page 41: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton. Frank](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052014/602afd16e6760654102390d2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Mortality by Increments
Life expectancy increased by two years, but only six months were healthy.
Escape cancer and heart attack only to get Alzheimer's.
40% of individuals over age 85 have some degree of dementia.
![Page 43: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

Guidelines for Talking to the Aging
Exercise patience in listening to repetitive stories. Remember that the donor was once young and vigorous
like you. Do not be patronizing. Be sensitive to competency issues if a gift is to be
arranged. Talk about what they most value and how they would like
to be remembered. Respect their religious beliefs whether or not you agree
with them. If they have made or will be making a legacy gift, help
them visualize how they live on through that gift.

Role of the Gift Planner
Know the tax law, have a command of the gift instruments, and know how to apply them
Help donors experience a sense of immortality through their legacy gifts and be a friend and comforter in the final stage of life

What do you do and say when a donor dies?
![Page 46: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

Guidelines for the Condolence Letter
1. No platitudes like “He’s in a better place,” or “At least he died doing what he loved.”
2. Refer to a positive memory of an actual event.3. Reference the impact of the person’s life.

Legacy Gifts
Legacy gift from charity’s standpoint: sum of money, usually given at the end of the donor’s life, and often for an endowment
Legacy gift from the donor’s standpoint: a way of overcoming mortality by leaving footprints.

The Central Role of Gift Planning
As gift planners, we have the unique opportunity to further the work of our institutions while helping individuals find meaning in their lives.
This noble role is not dependent on tax incentives.
![Page 49: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton. Frank](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052014/602afd16e6760654102390d2/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Yes, tax incentives are important
And we should seek as favorable a tax regime for charitable giving as possible Replace income tax deduction with tax credit Expand charitable IRA Retain life income plans Make PIF appealing again Possible reduce estate tax exemption to address
inequality
![Page 50: Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives - ccpgonline.org Symposium...Gift Planning Without Tax Incentives CHICAGO COUNCIL ON PLANNED GIVING MAY 30, 2019. Presented By: Frank Minton.

But Gift Planning is Not Dependent on Tax Incentives
Because you can appeal to powerful motivators that are not tax-related
And
Because legacy gifts address the fundamental human quest to overcome death
