HOW TO CREATE YOUR LEGACY

WILL OR TRUST

Leave a gift in your will or trust to ensure your support continues for generations to come. You can contribute a percentage of your residuary estate or a specific dollar amount.

ANNUAL DUES ENDOWMENT

Make a current or future gift in an amount large enough that a 4–5% annual distribution will equal the amount of your annual dues.

LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

Designate part or all of the proceeds of a life insurance policy be paid to the Foundation upon your passing.  This will require a new beneficiary designation form to be competed from your life insurance company.

INVESTMENT ASSETS

Donating appreciated investment assets (real estate, securities, etc.) to the Foundation ensures the full value of the assets are available to support Tifereth now and in the future.

IRA ACCOUNT

Current and future gifts can be made from your IRA account and may have income tax advantages for you or your estate.

IN MEMORY OF

Tifereth families and friends can commemorate their loved ones by making a contribution in their memory at any time throughout the year.
