Give With Purpose and Structure
Galleon helps individuals, families, and nonprofit stewards define philanthropic priorities and integrate giving with the broader wealth plan. The process evaluates what to give, when to give, how a charitable vehicle will be administered, and how donated or retained assets should be invested.
Capabilities

Our Approach
From Generosity to Governance
A durable philanthropic strategy establishes more than a list of recipients. It defines decision rights, grantmaking standards, investment responsibilities, family participation, administrative support, and a process for reviewing whether capital is advancing its intended purpose.
