WAYS TO GIVE

“Let us leave a splendid legacy for our children…let us turn to them and say, this you inherit; guard it well, for it is far more precious than money…and once destroyed, nature’s beauty cannot be repurchased at any price.”

-Ansel Adams

Planned Giving

Do you want to make a difference to this world – even after you are gone? Are you afraid to make a big gift now in case you need the money in your later years?  If so, you may wish to make a planned gift.

A planned gift to Inland Northwest Land Conservancy will help us continue to protect the land we all love for years to come.

Here are some of the ways to leave a legacy:

  • Include a gift of cash, stocks, or bonds to Inland Northwest Land Conservancy in your estate plan (i.e. will or living trust)

  • Direct part or all of your IRA or 401(k) to Inland Northwest Land Conservancy upon your passing

  • Name Inland Northwest Land Conservancy as a full or partial beneficiary of a life insurance policy.

Call our office or download Sample Language and Information for Your Attorney to get started. Please consult your attorney or tax advisor to be sure that planned giving is right for you.
