Gifts of Residual Interest (Q&A Version)

Have Your Cake and Eat It Too!

Outright Gifts (Q&A Version)
What to Give When You're Giving...

The Gift Annuity (Q&A Version)

Income Guaranteed for Life!

If your donors don't really understand that gift annuity payments last for the duration of their lifetimes, then they need to read this! And you need them to read it, too.

Receiving regular payments annually from gift annuities attracts many donors for first-time giving, and attracts them back again to repeat the same kind of gift arrangement. 

Be sure your prospects know about them! This brochure helps you drive home a meaningful, benefits-based message with clear, persuasive copy.

(Note: copy variations are included to help you promote either the 'self-insured' or 'reinsured' option your organization prefers)

The Remainder Trust (Q&A Version)

For Flexibility and Security

Your financially savvy prospects already know about the tax benefits of giving appreciated assets instead of cash during lifetime, and the balance of a retirement plan instead of other estate assets at death. They may tune out your marketing on these relatively simple concepts. To get their attention, you have to speak the language of the financial media and their own advisors.

This brochure offers a clear, thorough overview of what a charitable remainder trust (CRT) is and what it can do for your donors and for your organization. The language is informal yet persuasive, answering the frequently asked questions that often concern prospective donors.

Will Power (Q&A Version)
Making a Gift by Will...

This brochure offers direct encouragement to your prospects on getting started with drafting their wills. Using a low-key Q&A format, we focus on the satisfaction and peace of mind that donors will feel after the job is done.
