BEQUESTS

A gift of cash or property made through a will or living trust ensures a tradition of giving that will continue after the donor’s lifetime.

APPRECIATED STOCKS, BONDS, OR PROPERTY

An alternative to cash is a gift of appreciated property, such as securities. In most situations the full fair market value of gifts of appreciated assets is deductible. Additionally, taxes on capital gains are often avoided. Please consult with your financial and tax advisors for advice on maximizing and finalizing your campaign gift plans. An account transfer form is available upon request.

PLANNED OR DEFERRED GIVING

Charitable remainder trusts and charitable gift annuities are income plans that allow the donor to make a gift while retaining the income for his or her lifetime (or term of years) or for the lifetime of a named beneficiary. These methods of gifting should be discussed with your personal financial and tax advisors.

COMMEMORATE YOUR LEGACY

Donor Recognition. All gifts will be recognized and every donor will be listed in the Building for the Future Capital Campaign Honor Roll published throughout the campaign. Additionally, we have established appropriate and meaningful ways to acknowledge all donors at various levels. Gifts can be made anonymously and in memory of a loved one and will be recognized as such.

Naming Opportunities. The Building for the Future Capital Campaign will provide a lasting legacy for the Northwoods community. Permanent naming opportunities are available at various gift levels from $15,000-$1,000,000. Contact Ryan Zietlow for a complete list of opportunities still available.
