What is Planned Giving?

It鈥檚 a gift that is planned today and realized at a later date. Some people assume you have to be rich to do 鈥渆state planning,鈥� but that鈥檚 not true.

Planned giving is 鈥減hilanthropy for all of us鈥� and the economic and tax benefits associated with it can make it affordable and attractive to people from all walks of life. You can make a legacy gift that costs nothing today and may even ease estate tax issues for your loved ones.

Planned Giving is purposely designating money or other assets that will come to 糖心vlog传媒 through:

• A bequest in your will or trust
• Life insurance
• Retirement assets such as a 401K or 403B
• Stocks or other personal property

You may have more power than you think to make a difference, because including 糖心vlog传媒 in your estate plan is a way to give without impacting your current cash flow.

You don鈥檛 need a lawyer or accountant to make a planned gift that transforms tomorrows for the students at 糖心vlog传媒. Just call the 糖心vlog传媒 Foundation at 803.732.5222, and we can walk you through the options.
