Planned Giving Options
  • Gifts of Cash – A gift of cash is a simple and easy way for you to make a gift.
  • Gifts of Stocks and Bonds – Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to our organization.
  • Gifts of Retirement Assets – Donating part or all of your unused retirement assets such as a gift from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift to our organization.
  • Gifts of Insurance – A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a gift to charity. If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, consider making a gift of your insurance policy. For example, you may have purchased a policy to provide for minor children and they are now financially independent adults.

Gifts of Real Estate – Donating appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch or commercial property can make a great gift to our organization.

How to Give

Giving to the Arc can be done either directly or through a gift model that can provide tax benefits and even income.

  • Bequest – You designate our organization as the beneficiary of your asset by will, trust or beneficiary designation form.
  • IRA Rollover – Congress has enacted a permanent IRA charitable rollover. As a result you can make an IRA rollover gift this year and in future years.
  • Beneficiary Designation Gifts – You can designate us as a beneficiary of a retirement, investment or bank account or your life insurance policy.
  • Charitable Gift Annuity – You transfer your cash or appreciated property to our organization in exchange for our promise to pay you fixed payments (with rates based on your age) for the rest of your life.

Donor Advised Funds – You fund a DAF and make charitable gift recommendations during your lifetime. When you pass away, your children can carry on your legacy of giving.
