Bequests and Other Planned Giving
"Charitable gifting can be an
important element of your tax,
estate and legacy planning.
Strategies include grant-making
techniques, such as
donor-advised funds and family
foundations, as well as retained
income techniques, such as
charitable remainder trusts,
charitable gift annuities and
pooled income funds. In
addition, wealth transfer
techniques, such as charitable
lead trusts, enable families to
support their current
philanthropy while transferring
wealth to succeeding generations
in a tax-advantaged manner.
There are virtually no limits to
the amount of cash or securities
that you can give to charities,
although there may be annual
limits to the amount you can
deduct. There are a variety of
gifting strategies that can help
you lower your tax liability
today, as well as allow you to
remove highly appreciated assets
and future appreciation from
your estate." [Merrill Lynch]

Why Recurring Donations Help
ICSA and You
By selecting a recurring
donation in our online
donation-membership, you
ensure that your membership
will not expire, and you let
ICSA know that you are with
ICSA for the long haul by
making the organization part
of your regular giving.
This is vital to our goal of
increasing membership to a
level that will make the
organization self-sufficient
and no longer dependent upon
large donations.
