Welcome to Gift Planning at The Heritage Foundation

Thank you for your interest in exploring gift planning opportunities at The Heritage Foundation. Our hope is to serve you, your family, and your advisors with helpful information.  An increasing number of Heritage members are now benefiting from life income gifts such as gift annuities and charitable trusts, while others have simply chosen to remember Heritage in their wills or living trusts. We thank you for taking the time to explore the many options available to you as a member of The Heritage Foundation.
 


Benefits for Family and The Heritage Foundation

There are several types of plans that can provide significant benefits, depending on your needs. Many of these families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings as a result of establishing a planned gift. You might start by meeting some of them. Just click on the picture and view their stories. 


Deferred Gift Annuity
Several years ago Larry and Allison invested $30,000 in what they believed to be an attractive stock. It turned out to be a very wise decision, because the value of the stock increased to $100,000 a few years later. More on Deferred Gift Annuity >>.


Tax-Free Sale
Gene and Carol White were age 55 when they purchased some development land outside of town. They thought it would be a good investment that they could later sell for a higher price. They have owned the property for 10 years and now would like to sell. More on Tax-Free Sale >>.


Double My CD Return
Valerie is a retired high school English teacher. She has been a careful saver and has a number of certificates of deposit, but she has seen her income decline. More on Double My CD Return >>.


Peace of Mind Gift Annuity
Many years ago, Clara Lehman bought a home. Since she was so pleased with the home, she decided to buy stock in the company that builds and sells homes like it. Over the years, the stock has increased in value many times, but the value has been volatile. More on Peace of Mind Gift Annuity >>.
