Accordmg to Gary Harm, president of Charitable Services, individuals may realize substantial tax savings on income, capital gain and estates through the use of various charitable trusts. "Many people are unaware of the tremendous tax incentives permitted for gifts made to foundations like Portland State's," Harm said. "AI the same time, people can increase their own income." The PSU Foundation provides financial support to the University for scholarships, faculty development and a number of other important programs. Many alumni and friends have approached the Foundation with questions about the best manner in which to provide contributions. Those questions led to the retention of Charitable Services, Inc.
