A charitable bequest gift is an easy and favorable method that enables you to achieve your financial goals while benefitting BISSELL Pet Foundation. It’s simple to make, easy to change, and will help animals in need for years to come.

Retirement assets, life Insurance, Other assets (commercial annuity contracts, real estate, bank accounts, investment accounts)

You can achieve tax savings and a reliable annual income while donating to BPF.

With a charitable remainder unitrust, you can maintain or increase your income while making a significant gift to BISSELL Pet Foundation. The charitable remainder unitrust is highly flexible. You can easily make gifts of assets that are not easily converted to cash using the unitrust. If your unitrust grows, your payments will grow too, providing a potential hedge against inflation.

Make a difference today and save on taxes. A charitable IRA rollover is a wonderful option for people 70½ and older. That’s because it allows you to make a gift to the animals — any gift amount under $100,000 — and the distribution won’t count as taxable income. An IRA rollover is also a great option if you don’t normally itemize your charitable deductions.

Make a substantial gift to BPF in the form of fixed annual payments and pass assets to your family or other heirs at reduced gift and estate tax cost.

A charitable lead annuity trust may be right for you if:

• You have substantial assets that you do not need currently for your own financial security.
• You want to provide for your family or other heirs.
• You want to save gift taxes, estate taxes, and probate costs.
• You want your gift to make a difference at BPF starting immediately.
• You could consider a gift of $250,000 or more to benefit BPF and your heirs.
