Consider the following options as you begin to plan for your future legacy.
Outright GiftsGifts such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds and GIC’s, can be donated for immediate or future use. Outright gifts are easy to make, requiring an endorsement or transfer to Little Flower Academy.
Bequests
This gift, made through your will, is the most common type of planned gift. Arranged today, a bequest is not paid to Little Flower Academy until after your death. You can give a specific sum, or property, or a percentage of your estate. Whether you're writing a new will or changing an existing one, it is very simple to include Little Flower Academy in your bequest.
Charitable Gift Annuities
This is the gift that keeps on giving. Charitable gift annuities enable you to make an immediate gift to Little Flower Academy and receive guaranteed income for life. There are special tax provisions for the gift and annuity combination so both the gift and the income can be larger than you might expect.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
This gift is invested to give you an ongoing income with the capital going to Little Flower Academy upon death.
Gift of Property
Any property that can be valued may be a potential gift in support of Little Flower Academy. These types of gifts may include artwork, antique furniture or real property. There are substantial income tax benefits with many property gifts.
