Ways to Give a Legacy Gift

Give in Your Will

A simple way to establish your legacy is to designate Humanity & Inclusion as a beneficiary of your will and trust. We partner with FreeWill to promote free will-writing options for those who may find value in such a service.

Beneficiary Designations

Leave a legacy gift to Humanity & Inclusion by designating HI as a beneficiary of your owned assets: bank and brokerage accounts, life insurance policies, commercial annuities, retirement plans, donor-advised funds and more.

Donor Advised Funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a philanthropic giving tool that allows you to contribute cash and other assets into an investment account that grows tax-free. You'll receive an immediate tax deduction for your contributions and can recommend grants to be distributed over time to Humanity & Inclusion. You can also name HI as a beneficiary of your fund.

Qualified Charitable Distributions

A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) is for donors aged 70 1/2 and older to decrease their taxable income by donating directly from their IRA. You can contribute up to $100,000 a year, and it may satisfy your required minimum distribution. You can also name HI as a beneficiary of your retirement plan.
