Planning for the Future? Include a Cause You Love.

What is Planned Giving? Planned giving allows you to make a significant future gift to support our mission while maintaining your financial security today. These gifts are typically arranged through your estate plan or financial portfolio and take effect at a later date.

Examples of Planned Gifts: Planned gifts can include bequests through your will or trust, beneficiary designations on retirement accounts, life insurance policies, or bank accounts, charitable gift annuities that provide you with income for life, charitable remainder trusts that benefit both you and our organization, and retained life estate gifts that allow you to donate your home while continuing to live in it.

How It Works: Working with your financial advisor or estate planning attorney, you designate our organization as a beneficiary of all or a portion of your estate or assets. Many planned gifts require only a simple update to existing documents. You retain full control of your assets during your lifetime, and your gift takes effect according to your wishes.

Why Choose Planned Giving? Planned giving allows you to make a transformational gift that might not be possible through cash donations alone. These gifts often provide valuable tax benefits for you and your heirs, ensure your values continue supporting causes you care about, and create a lasting legacy that reflects what mattered most in your life.
