Planned Donations
Planned giving options such as gifts of real estate, stock and/or annuities provide the resources that create extraordinary opportunities and preserve our ability to provide life-saving services. Below are some typical giving strategies.  If you are unsure about which option to choose, contact us and we can walk you through each option step-by-step.

Bequest by Will: One of the simplest planned gifts is a bequest through your will in which you designate either a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate after other disbursements.

How it Works
  • You can provide now for a future gift to Family Endeavors by including a bequest provision in your will or revocable trust.
  • Family Endeavors receives the gift, and applied it to the purpose(s) you specify.
Benefits
  • The taxable amount of your estate is reduced which can increase the amount available to your loved ones.
  • You can modify your bequest if your circumstances change.

Bonds, Funds, & Stocks: The IRS allows you one of its most significant tax breaks for gifts of appreciated securities.

How it Works
  • You transfer securities to San Antonio Family Endeavors.
  • San Antonio Family Endeavors sells your securities and uses the proceeds as you specify.
Benefits
  • You receive donation credit and an immediate income tax deduction for the fair value of the security.
  • You pay no capital gain tax on the securities you donate.
  • You can designate your donation for a specific program or purpose.
  • You can have the satisfaction of making a significant gift now or funding a life-saving program.


Life Insurance: Use an unneeded policy to make a donation.

How it Works
  • You transfer ownership of a paid-up life insurance policy to San Antonio Family Endeavors.
  • San Antonio Family Endeavors cashes the policy now, or maintains it and receives the death benefit later.
Benefits
  • You receive gift credit and an immediate income tax deduction for the cash surrender value of the policy.
  • You can designate your donation for a specific program or purpose.
  • You can have the satisfaction of making a significant gift now or funding a life-saving program.


Real Estate: Make a substantial gift to San Antonio Family Endeavors through a transfer of residential, commercial, or undeveloped real estate

How it Works
  • You deed your home, commercial building, or investment property to San Antonio Family Endeavors.
  • San Antonio Family Endeavors may use the property for its own purposes, or more likely, transform it into a LODGE to accommodate more clients recovering from mental illness.

Benefits
  • You pay no capital gain tax on the transfer.
  • You can designate your donation for a specific program or purpose.
  • You can have the satisfaction of making a significant gift now or funding a life-saving program.
