Planned Gifts
Planned giving is a technique that helps you maximize the personal benefits of your charitable giving and allows you to make gifts you might have thought impossible. It is done through advantageous tax treatment under both state and federal law. Planned giving is merely a way to make a gift and also enjoy the benefits of these laws.
With careful planning, it is possible to reduce or eliminate income taxes, including capital gain, and transfer taxes, including gift, estate, inheritance and generation-skipping. You can enjoy these tax savings while turning appreciated assets into an income for yourself and others. Planned giving is a tool that helps you achieve your goals for Evergreen Healthcare and enhance your financial plans and security. For more information, please email Kae Peterson.
Charitable Bequest
Bequests by will are the most common planned gifts. A bequest is especially appropriate if the donor wishes to retain full control of property during their life while leaving a legacy to Evergreen Healthcare. A donor can make a specific dollar bequest or give a percentage of an estate. Evergreen Healthcare can be named as a contingent or secondary beneficiary. Evergreen Healthcare encourages anyone undertaking estate-planning do so in consultation with an attorney or other financial advisors for tax and legal advice. For more information, please email Kae Peterson.
