Some Additional Benefits
A planned gift is simple, flexible, and always in your hands. Here is what it can mean for the people in your life and for future generations of young people in our community.
Stay in Control
- Your gift is a statement of intent, and you can update it anytime.
- It costs nothing today. Your assets stay yours for as long as you need them.
- Give a set amount, a percentage, or whatever remains after providing for your loved ones.
- Adding us can be as easy as a simple update to your will or trust.
Give Through Retirement Assets
- Naming us takes one short beneficiary form from your plan provider.
- Individual heirs may owe income tax on inherited retirement accounts. A charity generally does not, so more of your gift can go to work for kids.
- You keep full use of your funds throughout your lifetime.
Life Insurance, Big Impact
- A modest policy can become a meaningful gift.
- Name us as a beneficiary, or talk with us about gifting a policy you no longer need.
- Update your beneficiaries as your needs change.
Be Thanked and Honored
- Tell us about your plans, and we will thank you in your lifetime.
- We will work with you or your appointed representative to ensure your gift is executed as you intend.
