The Power of Estate Giving

Estate giving lets you align your estate plans with the causes you care about most. When you include United Way in those plans, you’re making a long-term investment in Lebanon County’s health, education, and financial stability. These gifts can also offer meaningful financial benefits, depending on what’s right for your situation. Many donors work with their trusted financial, tax, or legal advisors to explore options that may:

  • Reduce current income taxes through charitable contributions of appreciated or retirement assets
  • Give you more control over how your tax dollars are used
  • Provide income for yourself while generating a tax deduction
  • Provide income to a nonprofit for a set period, then return assets to you, your heirs, or another charity
