Planned gifts
Gift planning, also referred to as planned giving or legacy giving, describes an array of methods that can be used to commit to making a gift that will be paid to a non-profit organization at a future date, in some cases from the donor's estate upon their passing. Often these options allow a person or couple to make a more significant gift than they would be able to with their ordinary income. Below are some common ways people give. To learn more about your options, visit our Legacy Giving site or download the Ways to Give brochure.pdf.
Real Estate
Real estate gifts such as a personal residence, farm, ranch, or vacant land offer a wide variety of tax benefits.
IRA or Retirement Plan Assets
There are several ways that you can make a gift from your IRA or retirement plan.
