A legacy or planned gift to the foundation helps to secure the future of our grants and programs while enabling you to reach your financial and charitable goals. Planned gifts may include donations through wills, gifts of life insurance, charitable trusts and retirement plan gifts.

Bequest
Many of our supporters make charitable gifts by naming the foundation as a beneficiary in their wills.

Gift of Life Insurance
Some of our supporters no longer need their life insurance that was purchased years ago to provide for children or other family members and donate the policy to the foundation.

Charitable Lead Trust
Individuals with large estates can use a charitable lead trust to benefit the foundation and pass principal to family members with little or no tax penalty.

Gifts of Retirement Plans
Your IRA assets can be transferred to a charitable remainder trust. The trust will provide life income to the beneficiary, and then an eventual gift to the foundation.
