  • "Does the charity intend to use the asset directly, or is their plan to sell the asset immediately?"
  • "What is the preferred method or gift vehicle for this donation? This could be a charitable remainder trust, donor advised fund, gift annuity, outright donation, charitable lead trust, etc."
  • "What concerns, if any, do you think the donor or your client might have about making a significant charitable gift or setting up a charitable strategy?"
  • "What kind of output are you looking for from this process? Would you prefer a technical analysis of the strategy, a summary for your client or donor, or a checklist of items to complete this gift?"
