WAYS TO SECURE FUTURE CARE

Outright Gift of Cash or Assets

Cash or liquid assets, such as highly appreciated stocks and bonds, may be given as an outright gift or as a down payment on a larger gift commitment.

Pledge

A gift commitment paid over a period of time (3 to 5 years) with cash or a combination of assets which may include: stocks, bonds, real estate, notes, trusts, gifts-in-kind, or other assets.

Planned Gift

Planned, deferred or estate gifts designated during the campaign may include:

  • Charitable Gift Annuity
  • Pooled Income Fund

  • Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust
  • Stock, Real Estate, Income Property, etc.
  • Life Insurance

Named Endowment Funds

Donors making a gift to the endowment of $10,000 or more may establish a named endowment fund. The fund's name may recognize a family, group, individual, or it may memorialize a deceased family member. A named endowment may be designated for general use or for a specific, ongoing purpose or program.

An Example of a Named Endowment at Work

The Robert G. & Eleanor W. Diller benevolent care Endowment Fund is an excellent example of a named endowment fund at work. Rev. Dr. Robert G. Diller served as United Church Homes' first president from 1968 to his retirement in 1977. In 1998 Robert and his wife, Eleanor, through their leadership gift established a named endowment fund. On January 24, 1999 Dr. Diller passed away. His wife, Mrs. Diller, passed away on May 9, 2001. The fund continues to grow from their many friends who made gifts in memory of Dr. and Mrs. Diller.

Earnings from the Robert G. and Eleanor W. Diller Benevolent Care Endowment Fund will provide in perpetuity residential care and direct support for residents today and tomorrow.

FORMS OF GIFTS

Gifts Of Cash are a traditional and effective way to support the Life Enrichment Fund. Gifts may also be made by check or money order (made out to United Church Homes or the Community of your choice). Contact us if you need more information.

Tax Savings
  • An income tax deduction in the year of your gift (up to 50% of your adjusted gross income.)
  • A deduction carry-over period for up to five years for any remainder.

Gifts Of Securities (Stocks, Bonds, etc), provide the same benefits to our Life Enrichment Fund as a cash gift, while providing more tax savings for the donor. Contact us if you need more information.

Gifts Of Real Estate can include any property owned by you. In most cases, after donating your real estate it can be sold to provide support for the Life Enrichment Fund. There are many tax benefits to this option. Contact us if you need more information.

Gifts Of Artwork, Antiques, Automobiles, Boats, etc, are often overlooked as an area of charitable giving. Gifts of tangible personal property offer our residents a gift of both beauty and value and offer you substantial income tax savings. Contact us if you need more information.
