Gifts made from your estate by will, trust or beneficiary designation

Bequest

You designate our organization as the beneficiary of your asset by will, trust or beneficiary designation form.

Beneficiary Designation Gift

You designate us as a beneficiary of your retirement, investment or bank account or life insurance policy.

Gifts that support our cause and save you taxes

IRA Charitable Rollover

An IRA charitable rollover allows individuals age 70½ or older to reduce their taxable income by making a gift directly from their IRA.

Charitable Lead Trust

You fund a trust that makes gifts to us for a number of years. Your family receives the trust remainder at substantial tax savings.

Donor Advised Fund (DAF)

You can make gifts during your lifetime. When you pass away, your children can carry on your legacy of giving.

Blended Gift

There are many lifetime and estate gift options that can make your giving go farther than a simple gift of cash or property.

Gift and Bequest

A gift and bequest is a combination of a current gift and a charitable gift made in your will or trust. It is an easy way to support our cause today and make a lasting future impact.

Endowment Gift

An endowment is a fund you can create now or in the future to achieve the impact you desire.

Please contact the Advancement Office if you are interested in pursuing annuity, trust or more complex options for your planned gift.
