Give a gift in celebration of an accomplishment, retirement, a special birthday or anniversary. Or give to say thanks to someone who has made a difference in your life. Regardless of the reason, a gift in tribute is a wonderful way to honor someone by supporting their community. When you give a gift for a special occasion, we send a card to the person being honored. The amount is kept confidential, and you will receive a tax receipt for your gift.

A gift in your will shows more than just foresight and careful planning; it reveals a lasting commitment to the health of your community and a desire to make a difference beyond your lifetime.

You choose:

• What to give: A specific amount, a percentage or the residue of your estate. You can bequest real property or securities.
• How your money is used. You tell us which areas or campaigns you would like to support or direct your gift to the area of greatest need.

Giving a gift in your will is also a tax-smart strategy. It will reduce the taxes your estate will have to pay. We can send you information about planned giving and a sample bequest clause to take to your lawyer or notary.

Through you support, “The Tree of Life” will continue to grow, making it possible to meet the needs of our growing community.
