FEATURE STORY
Highlandtown residents in the spotlight 
A new documentary film focuses on Highlandtown, one of BCF's target neighborhoods. Project organizers say giving residents the chance to share their story -- and to hear their neighbors' stories -- promotes diversity and combats stereotypes. Read more
 
For philanthropic soon-to-be newlyweds  
wedding couple cake Planning a wedding, but don't need a blender? Or any other traditional gifts, for that matter? Consider opening a charitable fund with BCF in lieu of a registry. Read about the Seal family, who recently opened one, or contact Kathleen Elliot if you're interested in setting up your own. 
 
Tax time, put to rhyme  
It's April again, which means it's time to pay the tax man. We at BCF hope The Haven, a poem by the BCF Bard, can bring a little levity to the process. Trust us: Poe would approve. 

Investment briefing and advisor honors 
We invite BCF fundholders and professional advisors to join us May 15 for a candid conversation about BCF's investment objectives. Plus, we'll be announcing two new members of our Professional Advisor Recognition Society.  
Think before you sell 
A gift of appreciated assets can be a great way to avoid capital gains tax, receive a charitable deduction -- even increase your income. Read more about the benefits of donating appreciated assets in the new planned giving section of our website. Much appreciated! 
Upcoming donor events 
It's never been easier to get involved with BCF! On April 24 join us for a 20 Minute Update conference call about our advocacy work over the 2013 legislative session. On May 1, stop by for lunch and a lively roundtable discussion about education. We want to keep you informed about all the good work we're up to thanks to your support.
