How to Leave a Gift
If you are generously considering leaving a gift, we encourage you to work with your professional advisors to help you determine which type of legacy gift is right for you. In addition, there are many types of legacy gifts you can make without incurring the services of your professional advisor. All you need to do is fill out your provider’s paperwork for the following gifts:
IRA or pension plan life insurance
stocks and bonds
savings / checking accounts
donor advised fund
commercial annuity
With every bequest; we recognize these commitments by inviting you to join our Legacy Circle. Not only are Legacy Circle members recognized in our publications, but also with invitations to special events.
If you would like more information about remembering BI with your Legacy Gift, please contact: Jeney Anderson (janderson@becomingindependent.org)
Please remember that anonymity is always an option.
