Planned Giving

Planned 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.
