Making A Planned Gift

A bequest is the easiest way to make a planned gift.  You can leave a future gift to charity by identifying in your will or trust the nonprofit organization(s) you’d like to support and the amount (s) or percentage(s) that will be provided to each when you pass.

You can also name a nonprofit organization as the beneficiary or a partial beneficiary of your life insurance policy

Charitable Remainder Trusts allow you to support nonprofit organizations while increasing your annual income for a specified period or for life, all while receiving favorable tax benefits.

Consult with your financial or legal advisor to discuss other ways to leave a planned gift and make a lasting impact on others.
