Leave a Lasting Legacy by Giving Through Your Will and Trust
A charitable bequest through your will or revocable trust is an easy and flexible way to extend your support for the Power for Parkinson’s community far into the future. Your will or trust gives you peace of mind knowing your loved ones are taken care of and you have made an impact that reflects your personal values. By including a bequest to Power for Parkinson’s in your estate plan, you ensure you’re leaving a lasting impact.
The Benefits of Giving Through Your Will or Trust
You retain control of your assets during your lifetime.
You can modify your bequest as your circumstances change.
There is no upper-limit on the estate tax deductions that can be taken for charitable bequests
Save estate taxes by providing your estate with a charitable deduction for the value of the gift.
How It Works
With the help of an advisor, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to family, friends or charity as part of your estate plan.
If you don’t have an estate plan, create one. If you already have one, update it to include your charitable bequest. Clearly state the nonprofit’s name, the type of bequest, and the specified gift amount or percentage.
A bequest may be made in several ways…
Gift of a Percentage of Your Estate
Gift of a Specific Asset
Gift of the Residual of Your Estate
