<h1 align=center>Welcome</h1>
<h2 align=center>Mission</h2>
<p align=justify class=bodytext>Fountain Professional Group, Inc. is dedicated
to assisting the Christian community by providing premier planned giving
services. Our mission is to provide such assistance in recognition of the
fact that all we have - our family, our assets, our very selves - are gifts from
God and these blessings deserve careful stewardship.</p>
<p align=justify class=bodytext>As such, careful stewardship calls the Christian
faithful to do the planning necessary to ensure our family's security while also
providing adequate resources to help Christian ministries carry on the Lord's
work. Often times, the stewardship based philosophy will manifest itself
in strategies which enable a donor to increase their personal income, reduce
taxes and pass on the savings to family and favorite charities.</p>
<p align=justify class=bodytext>Our role is to be a faithful resource for the
Christian community by providing expert assistance with estate planning and
planned giving services that enable individuals to effectively achieve their
important planning objectives. Unlike other planning groups, we
incorporate Christian planning principles which help people plan their affairs
in a way which honors and upholds their Christian values and family priorities
as well.</p>
<p align=justify class=bodytext>If the innovative Christian faith based
philosophy underlying our planning services interests you, we invite you to
explore this site further to learn how we can help you achieve your important
planning goals and objectives.</p>

<h2 align=center>Strategies</h2>
<ul><li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b><a href="Remain.asp"
class=bodytext>Charitable Remainder Trust</a></b> - With this type of gifting
strategy, you may donate an asset while retaining a lifetime income interest in
the donated asset. A percentage of the total value of the assets in the
Charitable Remainder Unitrust will be paid to you each year. A portion of
the property's value is deductible for income tax purposes since a nonprofit
receives the assets remaining in the trust after your death or after a specified
number of years. In addition, this special type of trust can sell
appreciated assets, tax-free, and reinvest the proceeds of the sale to generate
greater personal income for you.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b><a href="Lead.asp"
class=bodytext>Charitable Lead Trust</a></b> - This type of trust is,
essentially, the reverse of the Charitable Remainder Trust since the nonprofit
receives the income generated from the assets placed in the trust. When
the trust ends, the property placed in the trust passes to your heirs. In
most cases, the Charitable Lead Trust will enable you to eliminate estate and
gift taxes on the property placed in the trust.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b><a href="Annuity.asp"
class=bodytext>Charitable Gift Annuity</a></b> - With a gift annuity you can
transfer a sum of money to a nonprofit and, in return, you receive a guaranteed
lifetime income and tax deduction as well.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b><a href="WillGift.asp"
class=bodytext>Gift From Will or Trust</a></b> - Often times, people will make
charitable gifts in their will or trust. The benefits of this type of gift
are the ease of setting it up, possible tax benefits and the ability to make the
gift so that the charitable distribution is made after family obligations are
met.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b>Outright Gifts of Appreciated
Assets</b> - Simple outright gifts of marketable securities, cash and other
assets can enable you to make an immediate impact via a gift which helps a
nonprofit now, rather than later. Outright gifts can also give your
immediate tax benefits as well, depending on whether you itemize your deductions
or not.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b>Gift of IRA or Other Retirement
Assets</b> - Recent tax law changes have made this type of gift quite attractive
by enabling you to take a tax-free distribution from a retirement asset in order
to make a charitable gift. This gifting strategy can generate substantial
tax savings for individuals with significant retirement assets.</div></li>
<li><div align=justify class=bodytext><b>Donor Advised Gift Fund</b> - Similar
to private family foundations, yet much more simple and economical. How
this works is that you can create a gift fund which can provide endowment type
of support to Christian nonprofits. You can even have your children get
involved by enabling them, after you have passed away, to help you decide how
the annual endowment gift is distributed to designated nonprofits. In this
way, you can teach your heirs the important lesson of "giving back" to
support the values and causes you supported during your
lifetime.</div></li></ul>
<p align=justify class=bodytext><b>People are often surprised at how one of
these strategies can be a very satisfying way to financially support Christian
charity using resources that may otherwise be lost to taxes and other estate
costs. We would be happy to show you how one or more of these planned
giving strategies could enable you to meet your charitable objectives and tax
planning goals. If you would like our assistance, feel free to contact us
