Many choose to give to Pattie A. Clay Foundation through a bequest in their will. A bequest can be for a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate or a percentage of the residual of your estate (the amount that remains after specific bequests to your loved ones are paid). Making a charitable gift through your will may reduce or eliminate federal estate taxes. Bequest of real property and securities can also be made to the Foundation.
With a little planning you can continue to make a difference for your community long after you are gone. Sort of an “eternity leave plan.” You can leave a legacy by including Pattie A. Clay Foundation in your will to help provide quality health care services far into the future. It's the long-term version of the annual donation.
There are many types of charitable gift options to choose from, including assignment of life insurance or retirement benefits; charitable trusts or annuities and gifts of property, securities or cash. Pattie A. Clay Foundation can help you explore your options so that you make the choice that is right for you and your family.
