DONATIONS
Donations of cash, stocks, real estate, partnership or business interests, retirement assets from your IRA, and personal property, will deliver immediate benefits to the Conservancy Foundation and provide you with significant tax savings.
YOUR ESTATE
Benefit the Conservancy Foundation by putting a bequest in your will. Cash, property, life insurance, retirement assets, and other portions of the estate can be included. This gesture costs you nothing now, yet benefits the Foundation in the future, and provides an estate tax deduction as well.
INCOME PRODUCING & REAL ESTATE GIFTS
By setting up a charitable gift annuity, a generous donation to the Conservancy Foundation provides you with immediate annuity payments and a deferred charitable gift. You'll receive a steady stream of income for life, and a tax deduction for the charitable portion of the gift. Upon your death, your charitable gift starts a fund in your name, family name, etc, to benefit the work of the Conservancy Foundation.
With a charitable remainder trust, your gift is transferred into a trust. You receive an immediate tax deduction for the charitable portion of your trust, and you or a beneficiary receives a designated regular income payment. Upon your or your beneficiary's death, the remaining assets in the trust transfer directly to the Conservancy Foundation. A fund will then be set up in your name, family name, etc. to again, enhance the work of the Conservancy Foundation.
Your gift can also create a charitable lead trust building a fund for the Conservancy Foundation during the term of the trust. Upon the end of your designated term of the trust, the remaining assets are transferred to your heirs, with significant tax savings.
Giving the Conservancy Foundation your house or property through a retained life estate, allows you to live on the property for the rest of your life.
