The Realities For Children Triumph Awards recognize and honor exceptional youth in our community, who have survived the adversities of childhood abuse and triumphed personally, socially and academically.

“If you want to change a life, the Triumph Awards is the place to invest. These kids need all of our help.” Stu VanMeveren, Former Larimer County District Attorney

“Investment in these youth will undoubtedly be multiplied and positively impact others who struggle to overcome life’s adversities.” Jim Alderden, Larimer County Sheriff

“The Triumph Awards allow youth to see their success and see that success mirrored in the community.” Susan Kaul, Larimer County Department of Human Services Child Protection Supervisor

With your help we will build a $500,000 Triumph Awards Scholarship Endowment. Your gift to this endowment will continue to give, as the returns are invested in bettering the lives of abused children in our community. The Acknowledgment, Educational Opportunities and Post-Emancipation Mentoring that the Triumph Awards offer, help to empower these youth to break the cycle of abuse and neglect.

“I am not going to dwell in the shadows of my fears forever. I am not going to let adversity triumph over me!” Elizabeth, 2004 Triumph Award Winner

or most of the 40 percent of Americans who actually take the time to write a will, including Ftheir favorite charity in their posthumous giving plans is not always top-of-mind. But it should be, local experts say. “I usually have to prompt people to think about charitable giving as a way to reduce their tax burden,”said Bob Penny, attorney with the Fort Collins law firm of Wick and Trautwein and president of the Northern Colorado Estate Planning Council.“I can always count on engineers to have thought through their estate plans, but in general people are poorly self-educated.” Nonprofits, The trick, of course, is getting the message out to the potential giving public that charitable giving is the ultimate in enlightened self-interest and that figuring out how to do it is as simple as following the dots — or Web links. Attorney Stan Matsunaka in Loveland said he has noticed more clients are coming in with a donors can both stack of materials to ask about. “For the person who has something in mind already, there are plenty of things that person can do without having to pay an attorney to do the work,”he said.“These days most charitable insti- benefit from tutions will tell you exactly what to do and the language to use. Just go to their Web sites.” As an example, the Web site for Greeley-based public radio station KUNC, as well as those for Colorado State University and the University of Northern Colorado, is filled to bursting with legacies, bequests information. For those who intend to include a charitable entity in an estate plan but have never even heard of a charitable remainder annuity trust, much less how it differs from a charitable lead trust, these and other nonprofits’ sites are invaluable sources of information. A little research can save hours in attorney’s fees. “Our concern is to create the awareness that the potential is there,”said Nancy D’Albergaria, development director for public radio station KUNC in Greeley.“In 2006, KUNC started a focused effort to bring in charitable giving. That’s what you will see on our Web site. We can follow the clicks to see what things people are interested in.” The KUNC site is representative of a kind of marketing aimed at raising awareness and providing information rather than actually bringing in the bucks. “We do not give advice because from a legal standpoint, we need to be very careful,” D’Albergaria said.

Creating culture of giving Yet for all the information now available, creating a culture of planned giving remains a challenge. “East of the Mississippi, much more attention has traditionally been given to development,” said William Sheets, assistant vice president in the CSU office of gift planning.“Until recently, there was no budget at CSU to market planned giving. So you could say that our budget has increased 100 percent over what it was a few years ago.” Marianne Blackwell, director of the office of gift planning at CSU, pointed out that alums have always been generous with their gifts to departments. “That’s where they spent the majority of their time,”she said.“And people who are friends of the university because of the care their animals received from the vet school, for example, are a part of a large base of gift support.” However, those traditional sources of support, driven primarily by affection rather than

The United Way functions more like the community's checkbook, raising and distributing money annually, while a community foundation acts more like a savings account, making grants from long-term funds invested to grow for future use. The United Way works in partnership with local organizations to address the most pressing needs in the community, usually in the areas of health and human services, especially those serving children and families. The community foundation's scope of funding is broader, because of the various types of funds under the foundation’s umbrella. They can include:

Donor-advised funds — Established by donors who wish to actively participate in the grant-making process. Individuals, corporations, families or committees who establish a fund advise the foundation staff on charitable projects or organizations of their choice. Donor-advised funds make it easy to give to multiple nonprofit agencies in varying amounts at numerous times throughout the year.

Donor-designated funds — Established by donors who wish to support specific agencies or causes. A donor may choose to contribute to an existing designated fund, but should understand that the foundation normally allows the founding donor to change designations during his or her lifetime.

Scholarship funds — Can be structured to benefit students at any education level, and may be directed to a specific educational institution. Some donors choose to stay involved through advisory relationships, while others name advisory committees to assist in the selection of recipients. Distributions are exclusively for scholarships in accor- dance with objective criteria established for the fund.

Unrestricted funds — Funds not specifically designated for use by a particular agency, cause or area of interest. The foundation’s board of directors oversees the use of these funds, setting priorities for their use and determining how grants will be distributed to support the charitable needs of the community.

That’s about 6 percent of the popula- tion, and a highly sought-after demographic it is, especially in nonprofit circles. of giving from But as every professional fundraiser knows, there is one stumbling block to convincing the well- to-do to support a cause or an organization, no matter how worthy. Family. one generation “Many couples can’t agree on how to handle giving money to their own children, and until they make that decision, the rest of their philanthropic activity is put on hold,”according to Charles W. Collier, senior philanthropic adviser at Harvard University and author of “Wealth in Families.”He to next parents’ was in Fort Collins in February to lead a discussion workshop for about 50 invited clients of First Western Trust Bank on the topic of “The Practices of Flourishing Families.” Collier said money is typically a “difficult issue” for families of any income level to discuss. But it can become a real source of anxiety for first-generation entrepreneurs to whom the concept of pass- challenge ing substantial wealth to the next generation may not have occurred while the money was accumu- lating, especially if a couple come from different financial backgrounds. “One of the big issues we discussed (in the workshop) was how to leave money to your children without demotivating them,”he said.“In generations farther removed from earning the wealth, the questions are more about preparing the children to receive their inheritance and keeping them involved in the family philanthropy.” Tom Behr, vice president of First Western, said he spends a lot of time with clients designing estate plans, and charitable giving is a crucial component of any plan (see related story, page 14). He has also learned that the process brings up a number of issues not directly related to financial planning that he has to help a client deal with if the plan is to be meaningful. For example, many parents are concerned about how their children would use an inheritance, so they have questions about trusts and other instruments to keep the money “secure” until the kids grow out of their snowboarder phase or finally marry the “right” person.
