What are planned gifts… Planned gifts include gifts through your will, charitable gift annuities, gifts of life insurance, pooled income funds, and charitable trusts. Bequest Some of our supporters make charitable gifts by naming the Wellspring Counseling as a beneficiary in their wills. Gift of Life Insurance Some of our supporters no longer need their life insurance, that was purchased years ago to provide for children or other family members, and donate the policy to the Wellspring Counseling. Pooled Income Fund Your gift of money, marketable securities, or both is invested together with similar gifts from other supporters. Charitable Lead Trust Individuals with very large estates can use a charitable lead trust to benefit Wellspring Counseling and pass principal to family members with little or no tax penalty. Gifts of Retirement Plans Your IRA assets will be transferred to a charitable remainder trust, the trust will provide life income to the beneficiary, and then an eventual gift to Wellspring. |
