He serves as IJM’s Director of Planned Giving, assisting all members of the IJM family with questions relating to wise charitable giving and estate planning. Specifically, Chuck helps donors see the financial and tax benefits of donating non-cash assets such as appreciated stock and real estate, establishing family foundations or Donor Advised Fund (DAF) accounts, creating life-income giving arrangements such as Charitable Remainder Trusts, and all aspects of estate giving.

He graduated from Drake University with a B.A. in Political Science and earned his J.D. from the Drake University Law School.
