Lasting Gifts
Act Now. Give Forever.

While 77% of Americans donate to nonprofit organizations during our lifetime, less than 8% of us remember to include a gift in our will or estate plan. And less than 3% of all wills settled in Franklin County contain a charitable provision. Imagine the positive impact if each of us made a planned gift of any size to our favorite nonprofit.

Ways You Can Make a Lasting Contribution.
  • Leave a specific dollar amount or a percentage of the assets in your will. Assets include, but aren't limited to: stocks, bonds, CD's, real estate, vehicles, art and jewelry. Such gifts often provide tax savings.
  • Name I KNOW I CAN as the beneficiary of your IRA or pension plan or to a new or existing life insurance policy.
  • Honor deserving friends and remember loved ones with memorial gifts.
  • Encourage family and friends to remember I KNOW I CAN or their favorite non-profit in their wills.
  • There are several more sophisticated ways of giving, including but not limited to, charitable remainder trusts, charitable lead trusts, etc. that we would be happy to discuss with you.
