Why make a planned gift?
For many people, the main reason for giving a planned, or deferred gift is simple.
After initiating the gift there is hardly, if any, monetary output. Most planned gifts will not disturb current income or assets and have tax advantages. Some gifts can also supply income to the donor. People who have given planned gifts have also said they like the idea of leaving a legacy in their name to their favorite charitable organization.
Many planned giving vehicles are revocable. The giver has comfort in the fact that they are not legally bound to a substantial gift if their financial needs were to change in the future due to health or family obligations. On the other hand, it is a good feeling to know that after they are gone, these funds will help ensure that quality health care will still be available.
