A planned gift is any gift made to a charitable organization during one’s lifetime, or at death, as part of the donor’s overall financial and/or estate planning.

Planned Giving allows individuals to reap many benefits – including income for life, income tax deductions, reduced capital gains taxes, and reduced probate costs and estate taxes – and to support organizations, such as Yad Sarah, performing essential work for individuals in need.

By making use of tax and estate planning opportunities set out in federal and state tax laws, you and your financial advisor may be able to craft a gift plan that fits your needs now or in the future, and provide for the important work of Yad Sarah.

We want to be sure that we can fulfill your wishes. If you have any questions, please contact:

Executive Director, Friends of Yad Sarah

From all of us at Friends of Yad Sarah, thank you!

Friends of Yad Sarah, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, ID #13-3106175. Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law.
