For family business owners, preparing the next generation to someday join your business is an important goal. Teaching children the financial skills required is a key first step.
Our partners at Fiduciary Trust International understand the benefits of educating the next generation so children are ready and able to carry on your legacy. In fact, Fiduciary Trust has identified a link between financial education and philanthropy that can be helpful to you and your family.
Exposure to philanthropic work can build confidence, professional connections and cultural awareness. Philanthropy offers lessons in money management and organization. It provides a hands-on way to build business and financial acumen. It also enhances professional skills, such as communication and accountability.
Getting your children involved in philanthropy is an ideal way to build a range of skills in your children while supporting your community. Encouraging them to volunteer, letting them recommend organizations your family can support and helping them make their own donation decisions are just a few ways to get them started.

The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to multi generational businesses and protecting a lifetime of savings has never been greater. Now more than ever, multi generational businesses and family businesses are under fire. That's why Family Enterprise USA is passionately working to increase the awareness of issues important to generationally-owned family businesses built on hard work, while continuing to strengthen our presence on Capitol Hill. The issues we fight for or against with Congress in Washington DC include high income tax rates, possible elimination of valuation discounts, increase in capital gains tax, enactment of a wealth tax, and the continued burden of the gift tax, estate tax and generation skipping tax.
Family Enterprise USA promotes generationally owned family business creation, growth, viability, and sustainability by advocating for family businesses and their lifetime of savings with Congress in Washington DC. Since 2007, Family Enterprise USA has represented and celebrated all sizes, professions and industries of family-owned enterprises and multi-generational employers. It is a bi-partisan 501.c3 organization. Family foundations can donate.
