Planned Giving
Leave a planned gift in support of families facing homelessness
Wellspring offers a variety of opportunities to leave a planned gift in support of families facing homelessness including:
- Charitable Bequests
- Bequest Alternatives
- Charitable Trusts
- Join 1892 Legacy Circle – Send Notice of Beneficiary
In addition to continuing your legacy of philanthropy and goodwill, a planned gift can provide tax and other benefits to you and your heirs. Certain planned gifts can even provide income during your lifetime. A professional financial advisor or estate planning attorney can assist you in making the right planned giving choices for you and your family.
Wellspring honors our planned gift donors with our 1892 Legacy Circle. Let us know if you have included Wellspring in your estate plans and–if you wish–you can receive special recognition for your leadership and generosity.
For those just starting out on their estate planning Wellspring recommends the FreeWill website as a free resource. Estate planning is traditionally considered complex, scary, and expensive. That’s why FreeWill set out to build a simple tool that anyone can use to create these important documents. All estate plans made using FreeWill are 100% legal and specifically tailored to your states jurisdiction.
Wellspring has been recognized as a 4-star charity by Charity Navigator for exceeding industry standards in accountability and transparency. If you choose Wellspring in your legacy plans, you can be confident that your gift will be stewarded at the highest level.
Be sure to notify Wellspring Family Services of your choice to add the organization to your plans. Community members who name Wellspring in their afterlife planning become members of the 1892 Legacy Circle, follow link to Notice of Beneficiary online form.
