While over 70% of households nationwide contribute to charity each year (Nonprofit Times), less than 6% are planning a charitable bequest (Planned Giving in the United States, a Survey of Donors, NCPG, 1992). It is estimated that older Americans will transfer $40-$100 trillion of net worth to the next generation by the year 2040 - the largest intergenerational wealth transfer in history. If you're like every other nonprofit organization in the country, you are faced with a serious dilemma. The fact is that you will never have enough money to hire enough staff, to see enough people face-to-face, or to cultivate the number and amount of planned gifts you need to endow your mission into the future. That's why LEAVE A LEGACY™ is so important for each and every nonprofit organization in our state and bordering communities. "All boats rise when the tide comes in." By working together, we will realize more in the future. That's the strength of LEAVE A LEGACY™ and that's the number one benefit of being involved. |
