As part of our mission to connect people who care with causes that matter, we’re helping you finish the year strong.

In each session, Paul Caspersen, CFP®, MS, AEP®, will cover how to:
✅ Create meaningful philanthropic impact
✅ Prepare for 2026 changes
✅ Maximize 2025 tax deductions

With 28 years of experience in financial, estate, and charitable planning, Paul wowed attendees at our August Continuing Education Seminar. He’s back to share tax-smart strategies for advisors and those of you who want to make smart year-end planning decisions and support causes that matter to you.
