We all know that being a successful advisor to clients takes a great deal of time and work. We, at the Community Foundation of Greater Lakeland, also realize that you have access to a variety of options to assist your donor in achieving his/her charitable needs. So why collaborate with the CFGL?

• We provide LOCAL service. Your client will have a full philanthropic staff at their disposal to help them through the charitable giving process. In addition, we can provide extensive information about local needs, and assist your client in addressing those local needs with services that range from field of interest evaluations to post-grant follow-up. You can feel confident that your clients needs will be taken care of.
• We will make sure you have SATISFIED CLIENTS - Working with a community foundation is one of the easiest ways to help your clients achieve maximum financial benefits while meeting their charitable objectives.
• We help you STRENGTHEN THE RELATIONSHIP with your Clients -- You can develop new and richer client relationships by incorporating charitable giving through the CFGL. We keep you involved every step of the way, and there is no better way to develop a personal relationship with your client, than to work with them to achieve their charitable goals.
• We can give you access to the NEXT GENERATION of clients - An important part of what we provide our clients is family philanthropy planning. We bring in the next generation to continue the giving cycle, and will utilize YOU as the professional advisor, thereby allowing you the opportunity to build relationships with the next generation of clientele.
• Supporting the COMMUNITY - We invest in the long term and bring people and organizations together, convening diverse voices to address local issues and opportunities. Our business is building our community and bettering the quality of life in our community!
