This is a single-page vertical infographic from Raymond James with a soft blue gradient background and subtle circular line patterns at the top. Centered near the top is the main title: A guide to giving WITH PURPOSE. Below the title, a dark blue banner contains the introductory text: For many people, philanthropy helps embody values and strengthen legacies. It starts with a plan and a strong sense of purpose.
The main content is arranged in four horizontal sections, each with an icon in a circular badge on the left or right and a bold heading with descriptive paragraph text. The first section reads: DEFINE YOUR PURPOSE. Below it: Philanthropy is deeply personal. Making a significant, positive impact for the causes you care about requires a strategic approach and a clear mission. Defining your core purpose – your why – builds a strong foundation that keeps your giving focused. The second section heading reads: CHOOSE YOUR VEHICLE. Its paragraph says: A giving strategy calls for choosing the right vehicle for your goals. While direct donations are most common and often offer tax benefits, private foundations and donor advised funds have legacy-building potential and offer flexibility for impact. The third section heading reads: GET HANDS-ON. Its paragraph says: Depending on the cause, donating time may be more worthwhile than money. You may consider running for local office, becoming a nonprofit board member, offering pro bono work, mentoring behind the scenes or donating the use of your property and real estate. Identify what puts your vision into action. The fourth section heading reads: TEAM UP. Its paragraph says: When you coordinate your efforts with other like-minded philanthropists, you can combine resources and harness the power of community to achieve incredible outcomes. Coordinating with other people and organizations can help you to push your ambitions to new heights.
A full-width blue bar near the bottom contains the call-to-action text: To start building your philanthropic legacy, explore your options with your team of trusted professionals. At the very bottom, on a dark blue footer beside the Raymond James logo, the contact and disclosure text reads: INTERNATIONAL HEADQUARTERS: THE RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL CENTER 880 CARILLON PARKWAY ST.
