Giving Smarter: Real Strategies for Tax-Efficient Philanthropy

If you’re donating cash to charity, you might be missing out on major tax benefits.

In this episode of the G360 Wealth Podcast, Sam Diarbakerly sits down with Kyle Casserino of Fidelity Charitable to talk about a smarter way to give: donor-advised funds. These accounts let you make a charitable contribution, get an immediate tax deduction, and give to your favorite nonprofits over time, all while avoiding capital gains on appreciated assets.

Kyle breaks down how donor-advised funds actually work, why cash isn’t always the best gift, and how to think about giving if you’re a business owner, crypto investor, or just want a simpler way to support the causes you care about.

What to expect:

  • How donor-advised funds give you flexibility and control
  • Why donating stock or private business shares might save you more
  • Tools that make giving as easy as sending money on your phone
  • A behind-the-scenes look at Fidelity’s Private Donor Group for larger gifts

This conversation is about giving with intention, and with less friction.
