Do you ever dream about saving the world — or at least improving your little slice of it? I think many (hopefully, most) of us do, on some level or another.
Whatever the reason, you’re not alone. You’re also not alone if your dreams have yet to become reality.
Maybe it’s because you can’t find the time to volunteer. Perhaps you don’t quite have the cash flow to make the kind of difference you want to see. Or maybe it’s because you don’t know where—or how—to start.
Well, we’ve got good news. It’s not too late to make a difference—perhaps a much bigger one than you thought possible— if you have a will.
Charitable Bequest
You can leave your favorite nonprofit, like For the Love of Cats, a gift through your will, called a “charitable bequest.” This financial tool is used for “planned giving,” including gifts of life insurance, retirement plans, and more.
A planned gift is easy to set up. And many planned gifts offer fantastic tax benefits for you and your heirs. But perhaps the most significant advantage of a planned gift is that it won’t affect your day-to-day cash flow—meaning you can have peace of mind about making the kind of impact that will continue to support For the Love of Cats and our furry friends in need far into the future.
Making The First Step
However, you can’t make a planned gift without first setting up a will—an important legal document you should have to protect your loved ones and your hard-earned assets when you’re gone.
Please discuss with your estate planner the variety of opportunities you can give through life insurance, wills, trusts, and other tax advantage options as a legacy to your love of felines and our community.
Give a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime!
