Planned Giving
Planned gifts and bequests are charitable contributions and, as such, result in tax and financial benefits to the donor. The extent of your benefits will depend on the manner in which your gift is made.
Retirement Plans
By gifting all or a portion of your retirement plan(s) to a charitable organization, the full value is generally passed to the charity and may ultimately make a greater impact. The amount received by a charitable organization will be fully deductible from your estate.
Bequests
A Bequest is the most common method of planned giving and enables you to distribute assets to individuals and charitable organizations in the amounts or proportions you determine. An estate gift also provides the following benefits:
- The opportunity to make a major gift while preserving assets during a lifetime.
- Reduction in federal estate taxes
Life Insurance
A gift of Life Insurance is a simple way to make a legacy gift. You may choose to name NCS as the beneficiary of all or a portion of a life insurance policy.
