How you can help
ISPCAN by planned giving
Planned giving provides you, our members and supporters,
with an additional way to contribute. It ensures that your contributions will
work to help abused children over the long-term. Planned giving is a gift that uses tax,
financial, and charitable estate planning techniques to enable you to make a large
gift commitment and at the same time receive tax and financial benefits, as
well as the pleasure of supporting something close to your heart.
There are a number of ways to make thoughtful planned gifts
to ISPCAN. You can make a bequest by naming ISPCAN as a beneficiary in your
estate will for a specific amount or per cent of assets. This will leave a
legacy that will touch the lives of children and support ISPCAN’s future.
Other ways to make gifts to ISPCAN include:
- Contribute assets to ISPCAN through your IRA or
other retirement plan.
- Make ISPCAN the owner of a paid-up life
insurance policy or the beneficiary of a life insurance policy.
- Establish a charitable lead trust, designating
ISPCAN as the beneficiary. This is an excellent way to reduce estate taxes and
benefit a charity at the same time.
- Make a donation to ISPCAN upon the sale of
stocks that have gained in value, which will avoid owing income taxes on the
gain.
We suggest that you consult with an attorney or financial
planner when you are organizing your estate or gift plans.
No matter what your decisions may be, please
remember to inform ISPCAN of your planned gifts for two major reasons:
1. So that we can make certain your intentions are
understood and will be implemented as you wish
and
2. So that we can thank you personally, even
if you wish to keep the details of your plan confidential or your gift
anonymous.
