Planned Giving, continued again

Creative Gifts Through Retirement Plans

             Whether you participate in a company pension plan or a fund you have established yourself, such as an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), you may accumulate funds beyond your needs for comfortable support of yourself and loved ones.  In such a case, it may be very easy and convenient to make a gift from such accounts to perpetuate work you consider vital for the well being of future generations.  It can be satisfying to know that the funds you carefully saved over a lifetime may ultimately be put to good use now, or as part of a prudent estate plan.

A Gift of Lasting Significance

             All of the ideas discussed here can be a way to make meaningful gifts to Call For Help and additional organizations while including an enduring tribute to family members or loved ones.  There may be no better way to pay tribute to someone that through a gift with lasting meaning.  Examples of memorial gifts are endless.  Many organizations and institutions can attribute buildings, equipment, endowment funds, and a multitude of services to gifts made in memory of loved ones.  We will be happy to assist you in choosing an appropriate commemoration for your gift in honor of someone special to you.

If the ideas presented here are of any interest, we recommend that you discuss your plans with your professional advisors.
