There is no better time than today to start thinking about your future. When you think back on all that you have accomplished in your life, what kind of legacy do you want to leave? Even a simple will or trust can ensure that your assets are managed the way YOU want them to be managed.
Planned, or deferred, giving is the process of defining philanthropy through your assets after you pass, and is a beautiful way to ensure that your legacy is one of kindness and support to those who need it most. Just as you can bequeath assets to family and loved ones, you can also bequeath those assets to non-profits like Project Safe.
Planned giving can include assets you haven’t thought about, like unused retirement funds, stock options, and more. Planned giving is also not an all-or-nothing option. You can ensure the future well-being of your family and still make a difference in survivors’ lives with even a small portion of your legacy. Finally, your bequest to Project Safe leaves an everlasting impact! With some simple language in your estate planning, you can help continue changing our community into one where EVERYONE is safe in their homes and in their relationships, and that is a legacy worth leaving to future generations!
For more information about planned giving, contact Will McCranie, Development & Community Engagement Director, at wmccranie@project-safe.org.
