- Identify DSF you want to support
- Determine what type of gift you’d like to make
- Include the gift in your Estate Plan
Determine the type of gift you plan on leaving. You can choose to give:
- A defined dollar amount
- Specific assets (like cars or stocks)
- A percentage of your total estate
DSF experts can help you craft strategies for nearly any goal. For example, you may have stock you’d like to donate to a charity, but maybe you’re relying on the dividends from that stock to cover your current living expenses. Our Planned-giving advisors can help create a strategy that may allow you to donate the stock now, while taking an immediate income tax deduction and still receiving a stream of income from the stock for the rest of your life. There are some very powerful strategies that are often overlooked by donors.
If you’ve spent your entire life trying to make an impact on the world, leaving money to DSF is yet another way to continue to give, even after you pass away. Establishing DSF as a Beneficiary ensures your impact will continue.
In some cases, there might be more beneficial ways than bequests to support DSF. Our Planned-giving professionals are extremely knowledgeable in ways to maximize your impact, both during your lifetime and after death. They can be fantastic resources that might allow you to do more than you’d have been able to with a simple Charitable Bequest.

Charitable Trusts If you have high-valued assets, you have even more options to give back. Charitable Trusts are one such option for larger donations. They can be a way to support areas in need, while also providing assistance to other Beneficiaries through a stream of income and a pool of assets that can be used for charitable purposes.
