How does it work?

• You leave a gift of a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate or the residue of your estate.
• If you already have a trust or will in place, your attorney can prepare a simple amendment or codicil to provide for your charitable gift.
• There is no limit on the amount that can be provided from your estate for a charitable gift.
• Your charitable gift may include cash, securities or other property.
• Your estate may receive an estate tax deduction for your charitable gift.
• You may establish a testamentary charitable remainder trust or charitable gift annuity through your trust or will that provides payments to one or more designated beneficiaries, with the remainder going to Project Love^® upon their deaths.
• You direct Project Love^® regarding allocation of your gift; for example, to create or augment an unrestricted endowment fund or a special purpose fund.

What are the benefits?

• You invest in the future of young people in our community.
• By living charitably, you perpetuate your beliefs and become a role model for future generations.
• Here is an example of typical gift language in a trust or a will that you may wish to share with your legal counsel:
  To make a legacy gift to Project Love^®:
  I give $________ (or specified property) to Project Love^® Remember the Children Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio.
