You do not need to be wealthy to leave a legacy of hope for homeless families with children. And you don't have to wait for your lasting generosity to be celebrated.
Make your core values known with a planned gift to Family Renew Community, thereby joining our Abiding Angels. Members of this legacy society are forward-thinking donors who will support our long-term success in helping families with children overcome and avoid homelessness. And they will be long remembered.
What better way to build on your lifetime of support for this cause about which you are passionate? Here are methods through which you can contribute to the long-term stability of our programs to provide a safe, stable home for homeless families with children, and equip them with the tools they need to be self-sufficient. We encourage you to consult with your financial adviser, attorney and/or accountant to discuss these options, then declare your intention to make a legacy gift.
One of the easiest ways to help involves leaving a gift for Family Renew Community in your will or living trust. A bequest may be for a particular dollar amount, a percentage of your estate or a specific asset. The gift may be made for general support for Family Renew Community’s mission or restricted for a specific purpose. Estate tax savings may be significant. CLICK HERE FOR SAMPLE BEQUEST LANGUAGE.
Naming Family Renew Community as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or retirement account is an often overlooked yet easy way to make a significant contribution and establish your legacy of giving. You can designate Family Renew as the primary or secondary beneficiary of either all or some percentage of the proceeds from the policy or account. Retirement plan assets are ideal for charitable giving purposes because these assets are often heavily taxed when passed to non-spouse beneficiaries.
Turn your generosity into lifetime income with a charitable gift annuity to benefit Family Renew Community. This type of gift allows you to support Family Renew's mission of hope for homeless families with children while receiving fixed payments for life. When you create a charitable gift annuity through our foundation partner to benefit Family Renew, you can also receive immediate and ongoing tax benefits.
