Planned Giving:
- Bequest through a “will” is a very simple but effective means of making a charitable gift.
- Charitable Gift Annuity is a simple agreement that allows for a charitable gift and provides the donor with a current income, which typically has a higher fixed rate than other investment vehicles and provides for a charitable deduction.
- Life Insurance can be used to make a charitable gift of assets no longer needed.
- Retirement Assets can be used as a charitable planning alternative when the assets are no longer needed.
There are a variety of other vehicles that can be use to make charitable gifts. Please consult your financial advisor for the appropriate vehicle to match your needs. Always remember to review your “will” at each significant event in your life. (death/birth of someone)
As always your gifts are greatly appreciated and are used “to encourage, challenge and empower individuals to maximize their potential in all areas of life.” |
