Planned Giving

According to the website PlannedGiving.com, “Planned giving is sometimes referred to as gift planning or legacy giving. It is a way to support non-profits that enable philanthropic individuals to make larger gifts than they could make from ordinary income. Some planned gifts provide life-long income to donor. Other gift plans use estate and tax planning to provide for charity and heirs in ways that maximize the gift and/or minimize its impact on the donor’s estate.

Thus, by definition, a planned gift is any major gift, made in lifetime or at death as part of a donor’s overall financial and/or estate planning.

By contrast, gifts to the annual fund or for membership dues are made from a donor’s discretionary income, and while they may be budgeted for, they are not planned.

Whether a donor uses cash, appreciated securities/stock, real estate, artwork, partnership interests, personal property, life insurance, a retirement plan, etc., the benefits of funding a planned gift can make this type of charitable giving very attractive to both donor and charity.”

Gifts payable upon the donor’s death.

Some examples of the types of gifts that Wyoming Agriculture in the Classroom encourages are:

Bequests to help support Wyoming Agriculture in the Classrooms programs through wills, trusts, insurance or retirement plans.

Real Estate Gifts such as donating a home or vacation home to Wyoming Agriculture in the Classroom and still reserving the right to live in and use the property for the rest of the donor’s life while generating a current charitable deduction for part of the value of the property.
