Meals on WheelsPlanned Giving is a way to support Meals on Wheels of Greater Lynchburg through your estate plan or will. Your thoughtful foresight, generosity, and commitment will ensure the long term success of our program.
Planned gifts can be made to Meals on Wheels in multiple ways, and they are best made with the counsel of a financial or legal advisor. Your financial planner can also direct you in the benefits of an IRA rollover or charitable distribution, and other types of charitable gifting.
Financial benefits of planned gifts may include a federal income tax charitable deduction, and/or an estate tax deduction. Changes to the Tax Code may impact the tax benefit of charitable donations.
One simple way to ensure your legacy and support Meals on Wheels is through a Bequest.
To help you get started on your plans and legacy, you can use FreeWill, an online tool that guides you through the process of creating your will or trust for free. It’s easy to use, accessible online, and can be
completed in 20 minutes. You can use this resource on its own, or to document your wishes before finalizing your plans with an attorney.
Have you already included a gift in your will or trust? Please fill out this form to let us know! We would love to thank you for your generosity.
Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life-insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? If so, these are called non-probate assets and you must plan your beneficiaries for them separately. Use this online tool to make your plans and designate Meals on Wheels of Greater Lynchburg as a beneficiary of one or more of these assets.
It’s easy to make a gift of stock to Meals of Greater Lynchburg. If you have any questions, please call our office for support. 434-847-0796.
