There is a Planned Gift For Everyone

A planned gift - a Gift That Comes Later - is an option for any donor who holds an organization close to their heart. Planned giving donors need not be affluent. They do need to make a plan.

Please consider joining the Heritage Club by including a percentage gift to United Way of Santa Barbara County when creating or updating your will, trust or donor advised fund, or when designating beneficiaries for your IRA or life insurance policy.

Learn more about different types of Gifts That Come Later at the links below or by contacting Gift Planning Services Officer, Shanna Wasson Taylor.

IRA Beneficiary Designation gifts are simple, tax-smart and flexible. Consider funding legacy gifts with your traditional IRA, which is a taxable asset except when gifted to charity, while leaving other non-taxable assets to heirs.
