What is legacy giving?

Legacy giving is a way to support Safe Futures while protecting your assets and miminizing your tax liabilities. The tangible and intangible benefits of making a planned gift include:

• Experience the power of giving: Your gift will have a significant impact on the future of your community.
• Reduce income tax through a charitable income tax deduction for the gift.
• Avoid capital gains tax on a gift of appreciated property.
• Depending on the type of gift, retain income for life for yourself or a beneficiary.
• Eliminate federal estate tax on property passing to Safe Futures at the time of your death.
• Recognition for your support as a member of the Safe Futures giving society.
