Planned Giving & Estate Gifts
Including Hilarity for Charity (HFC) in your estate plans is a meaningful way to create a lasting impact.
What Is Planned Giving?
Planned gifts can be made through your estate or financial plans and may include bequests designated in a will or living trust, as well as life income gifts.
By supporting HFC in this way, you help support families impacted by Alzheimer’s disease, activate the next generation of Alzheimer’s advocates, and advance brain health research and education, while creating a legacy rooted in the care and values most important to you.
Ways to Include HFC in Your Plans
A bequest in a will or living trust
Beneficiary designations on retirement plans, insurance policies, or bank and investment accounts
Life income gifts that provide payments during your lifetime
Four Steps to Get Started
- Gather information about your assets, including retirement funds, bank accounts, and real estate.
- Consider the people and organizations that matter most to you and how you would like to provide for them.
- Decide who you would like to serve as your executor or trustee.
- Meet with an attorney. If you don’t have one, your local bar association can provide a referral.
You can also use free online tools like this one.
