PERSONAL PHILANTHROPY

Strategic Philanthropy and Grantmaking

Giving with Passion and Purpose

Philanthropy offers a unique opportunity to enrich your life, establish or continue a tradition of giving, share your skills and experience and unite your family around a common purpose. It begins with what matters mostto you. 

 

We help generations of individuals and families achieve their unique charitable goals, and continue to be at the forefront of the trends that are shaping the future of philanthropy.

 

Your advisor can help you access Bank of America’s broad suite of philanthropic services to help you maximize the benefit of your charitable contributions — for the causes you support, for your sense of personal fulfillment and to help ensure that your giving fits seamlessly with your other financial goals. This approach can enable you to share your financial success with others and create a legacy of lasting impact.
