LEAVE A LEGACY
Legacy gifting to charity is a powerful way to leave a lasting mark on the world by supporting the causes closest to your heart. By incorporating charitable gifts into your estate plan, you ensure your values and passions continue to create positive change for future generations.
Options like bequests in your will, charitable trusts, or naming a charity as a beneficiary of your life insurance or retirement accounts provide flexible and meaningful ways to give. Not only do these gifts create a legacy of generosity, but they can also offer tax benefits for your estate, making them both impactful and practical.
By planning your charitable legacy today, you inspire others and contribute to a brighter future. Your vision and generosity will continue to make a difference, ensuring your legacy endures for years to come.
SMART PLANNING FOR LEGACY GIVING:
Use the Right Assets.
When it comes to legacy gifting, choosing the right assets can make a big difference for both your heirs and the causes you care about. One highly effective strategy is leaving assets from an IRA to charity and passing non-IRA assets to your heirs.
Other ways to help:
