After the last eighteen months, many people are now seriously considering updating their homes - creating new spaces, changing color schemes, furniture and even artwork. It’s become clear that home décor has an impact on emotions and well-being. An emphasis on natural light, good ventilation, and biophilic (connection with nature) design have gained in popularity. This is accomplished with the use of indoor plants, skylights, and open indoor-outdoor floorplans.

Another noted concern is on climate change; many are now considering sustainability and which materials are best to use for the health of our planet. Homeowners want spaces that reflect their personalities, interests, hobbies, and history. Outdoor spaces are being treated as integral parts of the home, creating additional rooms to expand a family’s living and entertainment spaces. Stylish furniture is being chosen to be compatible with the indoor space. TRENDSDESIGNFOR2022 (. . .continued
Vintage and antique furniture are also making a comeback due to the widespread interest in sustainability. Lamps are important, not just for lighting, but also as art or a statement Thepiece.styles of the 70’s have made a resurgence, but with a twist. More muted and earthy tones have replaced bright orange, along with rounded furniture and multiple patterned fabrics. This year Pantone has named “Very Peri” its color of the year. “Very Peri” is a bold blue with violet-red undertones, often called periwinkle. Periwinkle represents serenity and calmness as well as vibrancy and excitement. According to Pantone, “Veri Peri” helps us embrace this altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we re-write our lives: rekindling gratitude for some of the qualities that blue represents complemented by a new perspective that resonates today, Very Peri places the future ahead in a new light. These are transformative times CHOOSING COLORS IS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT FOR THE DESIGN OF ANY HOME.

and “Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through.” Expect to see Very Peri in many different shades and uses. It can be used as an accent color for pillows, glassware, accent chairs, area rugs or art. Or one can try periwinkle patterned wallpaper to create excitement on walls, ceilings or even cabinets. Etsy has named Emerald Green their color of the year. It is a reminder of nature and works well on walls, bedding, pillows, and art. Other paint companies have chosen a more neutral color palette for the year 2022 in the belief that calm is needed after the uncertainty of the last two years.

Wills The first thing to understand is that writing a will and having an estate plan are actually two different processes, even though an estate plan will include a will. Estate Planning Estate planning is the process of designating who will manage and distribute assets after death or incapacitation. It is a more intensive process and includes a variety of documents including the last will and testament. While it may be overwhelming to contemplate, a welldesigned estate plan will ensure that assets are distributed according to one’s wishes. In addition to the last will and testament, an estate plan (. . .continued
Creating a will can be a fairly simple process. It will address who will take care of your children, who will take over your business, and who receives your assets and other personal property. A will requires the naming of an executor responsible for fulfilling the deceased’s wishes. Having one’s wishes defined in a will ensures privacy, helps avoid family disputes and saves money by avoiding probate and the expense of attorneys and public trustees to determine the distribution of assets which then becomes public information.
Living Will A living will is a document that describes the type of care one would want if incapacitated and cannot speak for themself. This can assist the family with difficult decisions and avoid confusion. A financial power of attorney allows for a designated appointee to handle financial affairs in the event of incapacitation. They can make financial decisions in accordance with the instructions defined in the estate plan.

Living Trust
A living trust is a document created during one’s life where a designated person, the trustee, is given responsibility for managing that individual’s assets for the benefit of the eventual beneficiary. It is designed to allow for the easy transfer of assets, thereby avoiding probate.
A living revocable trust allows someone to be their own trustee and allows for changes in beneficiary at any time. might include a living will, a financial power of attorney, a living trust, and beneficiary designations. An estate plan can be particularly helpful in the case of multiple marriages, business ownership, specific charitable donations, or specific requests for health or property. It can also ensure wishes are carried out and that assets are distributed as designated.
Every 8 minutes the American Red Cross responds to a disaster and makes this promise. You can help us keep it. Donate today at redcross.org This is how you say it’s going to be okay.
Beneficiary designations explain who receives which assets such as an IRA, insurance policy, savings account, or other financial instruments.
A well-executed estate plan can minimize gift, estate and generation skipping transfer taxes to ensure that the family receives as much of the deceased’s estate as possible. Everyone’s plan is different and requires the right team of professionals to implement. It is also important to update the plan regularly as personal circumstances, legislation, and tax laws change frequently. This article is for informational purposes only. Please consult a professional.

An irrevocable living trust is restrictive, and beneficiaries may not be changed but there are certain beneficial tax consequences.
PHILANTHROPYORCHARITY
CHARITY
According to the Dictionary, charity and philanthropy are two different things.
Charity is the voluntary giving of help, typically money, to those that are suffering or in need. It tends to address an immediate problem and is a compassionate response to a natural disaster, or a token of support for the victim of crime or violence, for example. Charity can also address immediate needs for food, shelter or medical care. It is a short term response, although one may give frequently to a particular cause.
Philanthropy is more strategic in that it seeks to root out causes of the problem and to develop long term solutions. Striving for long term solutions to problems such as addiction, housing shortages, or hunger takes time, study, and planning. This is where charity comes in, providing direct relief for people in immediate need.
18 LONG ISLAND | NEW YORK | VOL. 4
PHILANTHROPY
Another way to contribute is through a community foundation, which is a grant making public charity that is dedicated to improving lives in a particular community. Individuals, families, businesses and non-profit groups establish funds within the foundation in which they can contribute assets for charitable purposes. The foundation manages the assets and takes suggestions from those that set up the fund on how and where to distribute the resources.
Both charity and philanthropy possess the same goals of addressing needs and making the world a better place but with different approaches. One deals with direct relief and the other with root causes and finding solutions. Is one better than the other? Of course not! They are just two different ways of solving problems and both are essential to the functioning of a decent society. Recently, there have been changes to the tax code regarding charitable giving. Three Acts have been passed recently - The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA), the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act (SECURE) and the Corona Virus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES). All have some impact on deductibility of charitable contributions. They
There are over 700 community foundations in the United States. Whether one chooses charity or philanthropy, the ultimate goal is to help the community by using personal skills and resources to make a difference.
also may offer some additional advantages. For example, a qualified charity may receive your IRA with no tax consequences since charities do not pay taxes. Appreciated assets are also beneficial as a gift to a charity, as capital gains tax can be avoided.
