If something were to happen to you do you have a plan in place to continue giving?  Life insurance, in conjunction with a private foundation or donor advised fund, can give you current tax deductions and put a plan in place so that those gifts continue well after you are gone.  This is a great way to leave a legacy to your favorite charity or let your family decide where the money will go each year.
