6 Ways to Make a Planned Gift
A Gift
In Your Will Or Living Trust A simple charitable bequest
can provide very meaningful support for our mission as well
as reduce the amount of estate and inheritance taxes paid.
A Gift
Of A New Or Existing Life Insurance Policy
Many
people have life insurance policies that are no longer
needed for their original purposes. Such policies can be
given to the Boys & Girls Club and an income tax deduction
can be taken for the cash surrender value.
A
Beneficiary
Designation On Your Life Insurance Policy
Without
giving up ownership of your life insurance policy, you can
still designate the Boys & Girls Club as a whole or partial
death beneficiary.
A Gift
Of Financial Accounts
Most checking, savings and brokerage accounts
can be bequeathed to the Boys & Girls Club through a simple
“payable on death” designation with your financial
institution.
A Gift
Of Retirement Benefits
Naming the
Boys & Girls Club as primary, partial or contingent
beneficiary of your retirement plan is a simple, practical
gift idea.
A Gift
Of Savings Bonds
Many people
have fully appreciated savings bonds. These assets cannot
be donated during your lifetime without first being
converted to cash, and therefore, generating taxable
income. By making a gift of savings bonds through your
will, you can avoid this tax and support our mission.
