Planned Giving
|
Planned giving allows you to continue your fight against childhood hunger long after you have passed
on. Gifts of your personal assets help solidify our future and our ongoing fight to break the cycle of hunger in
Ohio. You should discuss possible planned giving with your financial planner or estate manager. But there is also
another source of support for preparing your gift.
 The Leave
a Legacy® Central Ohio is a great way to prepare your planned giving. Flexible plans allow you to leave
specific dollar amounds, a percentage of your total assests or individual assests such as CDs, stocks, bonds, real
estate, vehicles, jewelry or artwork. You can even make Children’s Hunger Alliance a beneficiary in your will,
on a life insurance policy, or on an IRA or pension plan.
For more information, e-mail or call Stephen
Lilly, Director of Marketing & Development for Children’s Hunger Alliance, at 614-341-7700 ext. 279. You
may also visit Leave a Legacy Central Ohio’s
web site for more information on planning options for legacy giving.
The 2003 Charity Aid, Relief, and Employment (CARE) Act is innovative, proposed legislation intended
to make it easier for Americans to make charitable gifts. One important provision of this bill is the Direct Charitable
IRA Rollover. This provision would allow donors over the age of 70.5 to use their traditional IRAs to make a current
or deferred gift, free of income tax. Both the House and Senate have passed versions of the CARE Acta nd it now
awaits reconciliation in the conference committee. Legacy gifts help secure the future of our fight against childhood
hunger.
