Your chance to change the world.
You can make a lasting contribution toward a
better world and ensure a new generation of volunteers for years to come by
designating Metro Volunteers as a beneficiary in your will, trust, retirement
plan, or insurance policies.
Options such as gift annuities and charitable
remainder trusts may allow you to increase cash income during your lifetime,
while providing Metro Volunteers with much-needed funding in years to come.
A charitable bequest is a gift of assets to a
charity through a will or Revocable Living Trust. The bequest allows you to make
a substantial contribution without reducing current income; it operates like a
postdated check payable only after death.
There are four ways to make a charitable bequest:
specifying a percentage of the estate, a dollar amount, a specific asset, or a
residue of the estate following the satisfaction of other bequests.
| Sample Bequest Language I give, devise and
bequeath to Metro Volunteers (tax identification number 84-0782124), a non
profit organization organized under Colorado law now maintaining its office at
444 Sherman Street, Suite 100 Denver, Colorado 80203, ___________% of my estate
OR $________ OR my ___________ property (i.e.: 100 shares of XYZ Corporation) OR
all (or part/percentage) of the residue of my estate, including, without
limitation, real and personal property. |
Planned gifts and bequests may be applied to
specific projects or programs or used as unrestricted gifts to ensure the
long-term financial well-being of Metro Volunteers.
For any planned gift, please consult your own
financial advisor. For more information concerning including Metro Volunteers in
your estate planning, contact Gary Renville, Director of Development, at (303)
282-1234 ext. 302 or e-mail garyr@metrovolunteers.org.
