Planned Giving

Please give generously to the St. Andrew's Reaching for the STARS Charitable Fund Many donors assume that the only possible gift is one made outright. Although we welcome and encourage outright gifts, there are other ways to support St. Andrew’s programs financially, through what is known as Planned Giving. Your gifts may be made during your lifetime or under your Will and can consist of cash, securities, personal property or real estate. There are even ways you can even give something to us—real estate, for example—and still retain the right to use it.

The various charitable gift options you may wish to consider are as follows:

Bequests: One of the easiest and most common ways you can leave a meaningful gift to help older adults is by including a bequest in your Will.

Charitable Gift Annuities: A gift annuity is another way you can make a lasting gift and is a simple, contractual agreement between donors and St. Andrew’s in which assets are transferred to us in exchange for our promise to pay you a specific amount of annual income or annuity.

Gifts of Appreciated Assets: You can also make a meaningful gift by donating stocks that have increased in value, particularly those producing a low yield.

Gifts of Life Insurance: You can donate a life insurance policy to use or simply name us as the beneficiary.

Charitable Remainder Trust: A Charitable Remainder Trust is an ideal way to utilize non-or low income producing assets to provide donors increased income for life or a specific term of years.

Retained Life Estate: One of your valued possessions, your home, can become a valued gift to us even while living in it, and even if you want your spouse or other survivor to live their for life.

Gifts of Real Estate: If you own property that is fully paid off and has appreciated in value, an outright gift may be the simplest solution.

Gifts of Cash: The simplest way to give and you can deduct the cash gift for income tax purposed in the year in which you contribute it.

Memorial Gifts: Any of the planned giving ideas above can become an enduring tribute to a family member or loved one.
