Charitable planning can be a great opportunity to collaborate with your children and grandchildren on something you're passionate about, to work together on building something that's bigger than your family. In some cases, where the next generation doesn't share the parents' particular philanthropic interests, a solution is to create separate DAFs for each of the children, giving them the resources to forge their own philanthropic paths. In the right circumstances, a family foundation can also bring the family together, offering you and your children the chance to work side by side in a cohesive way to support a philanthropic goal.
