Gift and Bequest Overview
Benefits of a gift and bequest
- Receive a charitable income tax deduction for your gift made to us this year
- Continue to use and control your assets during your lifetime
- Leave a lasting legacy through a bequest to support our work after you are gone
How a gift and bequest works
You can make a gift to support our work this year by contacting us or visiting our website. A charitable bequest is a way to make your giving go further. With the help of an attorney, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to Vermont Community Foundation as part of your estate plan, or you can make a bequest by designating us as a beneficiary of your retirement account or life insurance policy.
