Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
At first, Richard Leong thought his legacy was just the stuff he’d acquired through a successful career in the global energy sector and would pass on to his children when he died. But, as generosity became increasingly important to him and his family, that view changed.
And his background in helping companies learn to focus helped him lead his family in defining their own mission. Learn the three questions Richard asked his family when they decided to define their mission, and find out how they’ve played out.
Last weekend, heavy rains over a 24-hour period resulted in flash flooding of Kentucky’s three major rivers, leaving 15 dead, thousands evacuated from their homes, and many schools across the state closed until further notice. Read the story to find out how you can help.
Several provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 are scheduled to expire at the end of 2025. Register today for “New year … new administration … new tax laws on the horizon,” NCF’s next Inside Giving webinar on Wednesday, March 5, from 3 - 4 p.m. ET. NCF’s Jeanne McMains will discuss five imminent tax law changes, four practical implications for charitable giving, three key conversations to have with clients, two legacy-planning opportunities, and the one God who remains on his throne.
All givers, regardless of where they are on their faith journey, want to be generous. Professional advisors Ron Bare and Curtis Burkholder help their clients live more generously by being aware of this desire. Watch Ron and Curtis share how partnering with NCF has helped them navigate these important conversations.
Saturday 7 is brought to you by our team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF). We would love to help you create your Giving Strategy™, so you can experience more joy and adventure as you pursue a life of generosity. Find an NCF location near you at ncfgiving.com/locations.
