Appreciated Land & Donor Advised Funds

Shane and Melanie were devout believers and members of their church and had been committed tithers for many years. God had blessed their business and they were seeking to make the shift from success to significance. They had traded their days for dollars, and now wanted to trade their dollars for days. When Melanie’s mother died, she inherited the 250 acre family farm, valued at approximately $4 million. She and her husband did not need the money, nor did they need additional income.
