Multi-Generational Wealth Coaching & Education
Preserving wealth across generations is not just about smart investments—it’s about educating and preparing future generations to manage it with care and responsibility. At BlackMore, our multi-generational wealth coaching and education programs are designed to equip the next generation with the knowledge and skills they need to manage, grow, and sustain the family wealth.
Our coaching programs include:

- Philanthropy & Legacy Building: We help young family members grasp the importance of philanthropy and creating a lasting legacy. By understanding the value of giving, they can contribute meaningfully to society while upholding the family’s values.
- Family Leadership & Governance: We offer training and mentorship for younger family members to prepare them for leadership roles within the family business or governance structures. This ensures smooth transitions in leadership and strengthens the family’s decision-making process.

Philanthropic Structures
At BlackMore, we understand that wealth should not only serve your family but also make a meaningful impact on society. Our philanthropic advisory services help you create and manage charitable structures that reflect your values and make a positive difference. We work with you to develop:
- Family Foundations: We assist in establishing private foundations to help fund causes that are important to your family. These foundations can be tailored to reflect the family’s mission and can serve as vehicles for future generations to engage in giving.
- Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs): For those who want flexibility and control over their charitable donations, we guide you through setting up DAFs. These funds allow you to recommend grants to your chosen charities while enjoying tax benefits and minimizing administrative burdens.
- Impact Investing: We help you integrate social responsibility into your investment strategies through impact investing—investments that yield both financial returns and positive social outcomes. This approach allows you to grow your wealth while supporting causes that align with your family’s values.
With BlackMore, your philanthropic efforts are structured for maximum impact, enabling your family to give back while sustaining the wealth that makes it all possible.
