AMERICAN OUTREACH FOUNDATION LEGACY SOCIETY
In 2023 we established the American Outreach Foundation Legacy Society, to express our appreciation to the committed donors who would remember the American Outreach Foundation in their estate plans.
Members of this distinctive group will share the common bond of philanthropy and vision. We invite you to join with other compassionate philanthropists who share the same passion to inspire the young men and women aging out of foster care and to provide for the needs of future generations.
ABOUT THE LEGACY SOCIETY
American Outreach Foundation established the American Outreach Foundation Legacy Society to honor its benefactors, whose commitment is an inspirational example of generosity. Legacy Society members may choose to remain anonymous.
American Outreach Foundation’s commitment to continuing its work in the future, requires thoughtful planning and preparation. Some of the American Outreach Foundation’s supporters may want to help ensure that the initiative has the financial resources needed, by including a bequest in their will or trust, or by providing another form of future gift upon their passing.
When you notify American Outreach Foundation that you have included a gift to the organization in your estate plan, you become an honored member of American Outreach Foundation’s Legacy Society. By notifying the organization of your decision, you will ensure that your gift is properly recognized when received.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT FORM OF PLANNED GIFT
A planned gift may have financial benefits for you and can even allow you to contribute more to American Outreach Foundation after you pass away than you could during your lifetime. There are many ways to support American Outreach Foundation with a planned gift. Please discuss planned giving with your lawyer, tax planner, or financial advisor to find out which types make sense for you.
The tax and legal benefits you receive will depend on your situation, and your financial, tax, and estate planning goals. In some cases, an estate gift will allow you to make a gift that is larger than the donations you make during your lifetime, or reduce or eliminate estate tax by decreasing the size of your taxable estate below the Estate Tax Exemption.
Because benefits vary according to your individual circumstances, American Outreach Foundation strongly encourages you to consult with your attorney, tax advisor, or other estate planning professional before making a planned gift. By reviewing various options with your advisor, you can choose to make the gifts that best meet your immediate and future needs.
This information is offered to help you understand some of your options for making a charitable gift to American Outreach Foundation. Only a lawyer or tax professional can give you tax advice.
