Planned Giving
SIX WAYS TO MAKE TO PLANNED GIFT TO THE BOYS & GIRLS CLUB
A gift in your will or living trust. A simple charitable bequest can provide very meaningful support to our mission as well as reduce the amount of estate and inheritance taxes paid. Bequests may be specific assets or amounts, or they may be proportional or residual in nature.
A gift of savings bonds. Many people have fully appreciated savings bonds. These assets cannot be donated during your lifetime without first be converted to cash and generating tax to be paid. By making a gift of savings bonds you through your will you can avoid this tax and support our mission.
A gift of retirement benefits. Naming the Boys & Girls Clubs as primary, partial, or contingent beneficiary of your retirement plan is a simple, practical gift idea. See your personnel office for the proper forms.
A gift of financial accounts. Most checking, savings and brokerage accounts can be bequeathed to the Boys & Girls Clubs through a simple “payable on death” designation with your financial institution.
A beneficiary designation on your life insurance policy. Without giving up ownership of your life insurance policy, you can still designate the Boys & Girls Club as a whole or partial death beneficiary. Contact your insurance company for a Change of Beneficiary form.
A gift of a new or existing life insurance policy. Many people have life insurance policies that are no longer needed for their original purposes. Such policies can be given to the Boys & Girls Club, and an income tax deduction can be taken for the cash surrender value. Plus, the annual premiums on a new or existing policy given to the Foundation irrevocably may also be tax deductible.
Donor Confidentiality Policy
It is the policy of Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas to maintain the highest level of confidentiality with respect to donor information. We will not share donor names, addresses or fund related financial information with any individual or organization outside of the Boys & Girls Club organization without expressed written permission from donors.
From time to time, donor names may be listed in annual publications and other forms of media. If you choose not to be recognized as a donor, please let use know by contacting Misti Potter via email or phone at (214) 821-2950 x 732.
