Planned Giving

What is the secret to making a gift that will provide the greatest benefit to you and the American Red Cross? Part of the answer lies in careful planning and good organization. The best plans are created by first, deciding what your goals are and second, determining how to accomplish your goals.

Planned gifts create opportunities for both the American Red Cross and our donors. Determining what gift is right for you is just as important as making the gift. There are a myriad of easy giving options from which you can choose — from naming us as a beneficiary in your will to a more complex trust arrangement. Ultimately the best plan for you will balance what you wish to accomplish for yourself, your family, and your charitable interests in your overall estate and financial plans.
