Ukraine Humanitarian Relief

,

It’s difficult to turn on the news these days without seeing the crisis in Ukraine unfold. We’ve had several clients reach-out with interest in supporting relief efforts in Ukraine and accordingly wanted to send out a message with some resources if you are considering donating.

Fidelity Charitable has produced a page on their website to highlight several approved charities that are supporting the humanitarian relief efforts in different capacities (i.e. emergency humanitarian efforts, medical response, supply/logistical response, etc.). If you are deciding between multiple charities then it’s typically helpful to compare different charities in Charity Navigator where organizations receive a score based on how they allocate funds/donations. The higher the score, the more dollars that go towards the charitable efforts you are interested in supporting.

Additionally, Fidelity Charitable has organized a webinar on Thursday, March 31^st at 3pm EST to share additional information and resources that you may find helpful. You can register for the webinar at this link.

Please do not hesitate to reach-out if we can help support you with your charitable interests related to this or any other cause.

About the Author: Seth Corkin

As a Personal CFO, my goal in working with every client is simple – help them prioritize and achieve their various personal and financial goals. I partner directly with clients to help them quantify and evaluate the technical and emotional aspects of every financial decision given their individual circumstances. I strive to provide a concierge-level service when advising clients and coordinating all facets of their financial lives. Prior to joining Single Point, I was a Wealth Strategist at Bainco International Investors, working primarily with entrepreneurs, small business owners, and beneficiaries of generational wealth to integrate tax and estate planning strategies into their overall investment plan. Before Bainco, I was a counselor at The Colony Group where I provided holistic financial planning services to executives at both private and public companies, helping them navigate their unique compensation structures, equity incentive plans, and upcoming liquidity events. My passion for financial planning began in college while completing my undergraduate coursework at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where I developed an interest in the analytical and problem-solving components of planning. I consider myself a “lifelong learner” and am always eager to pursue educational opportunities that will help me better serve the clients with whom I work. As someone who is passionate about financial literacy and access to advice, I volunteer my time to help low-income Massachusetts residents through the Midas Collaborative as well as patients at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. I was recognized as the 2017 Volunteer of the Year by the MA Chapter of the Financial Planning Association (FPA). In addition to my pro bono work, I am an active member of the FPA and am on the NexGen and Finance Committees for our chapter. I live in Brookline with my wife, Olivia, and am an avid Wisconsin Badger and New England sports fan.
