A planned gift to a charitable organization like The Seattle Public Library Foundation allows you to create a legacy for your community while meeting your own financial and personal objectives. Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to:
Charitable bequests are made through wills or revocable living trusts and are a popular way to support an organization. Bequests are simple to arrange, offer flexibility, and can reduce estate taxes. Life Income Plans There are a number of ways to donate cash, securities, or other property and arrange lifetime payments for yourself or loved ones. Benefits include a current income tax deduction, as well as other possible tax advantages. Retirement Plan Assets In many cases, donating some or all of the assets from your IRA, 401(k), or other qualified retirement plan is a smart option. Gifts can be made during your lifetime or upon death. Other Planned Gift Options The Foundation welcomes contributions of a variety of types of assets such as securities, life insurance, U.S. savings bonds, annuity contracts, tangible personal property, and works of art. In addition, gifts can be structured in many different ways. For more information From time to time, planned giving seminars are hosted by the Foundation free of charge. Presenters are specialists in this area. To learn more about the benefits of planned giving, attend a seminar, or establish a planned gift, please contact our Director of Gift Planning, Sara Elward at 206.615.1623 for details. |
