Donate through planned giving
Ways of giving:
Cash
The most common gift made to CPRF is a gift of cash. Cash gifts are welcome and convenient, but there are other ways of giving that may produce financial benefits for the donor.
Securities
Many donors choose to make gifts in the form of stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares. Donors of securities may realize tax benefits by giving long-term securities which have appreciated in value.
Real Estate
Gifts of real property may provide exceptional tax and financial benefits to the donor, as well as relief from property management burdens.
Personal Property or Equipment
Gifts of equipment, personal property and other items of value may be donated to support CPRF.
Charitable Remainder Trust
This gift arrangement provides income to the donor for life or term of years, leaving the remainder to CPRF at the end of the trust. A charitable remainder trust can provide substantial advantages in estate planning.
Charitable Lead Trust
This trust distributes payments to CPRF for the term of the trust, after which the remainder is transferred to the donor's family members or heirs. As an estate planning tool, a charitable lead trust provides significant wealth preservation opportunities.
Gift of Life Insurance
A donor may give a paid-up policy no longer needed or secure a new policy naming CPRF as the owner and beneficiary.
Flexible Endowment
This arrangement allows a donor to create an endowment over time through incremental gifts of varying amounts.
Testamentary Gift
CPRF will gratefully accept gifts through a donor's will or revocable living trust. Sample bequest language is available upon request.
