Legacy Giving
You can secure continued support for sexual assault survivors and the fight to eliminate sexual violence by making a bequest to STSM or STSM’s Endowment Fund – your legacy will help continue the mission into the future. Bequests, life-income gifts, and other gift planning arrangements provide vital support to sustain our programs. Gifts tied to your estate give you the flexibility to support STSM now and in the future. In addition, they often help reduce capital gains and estate taxes. Arrangements such as life income gifts can provide you with income for life while greatly reducing your tax burden. A charitable lead trust offers you an opportunity to pass property to heirs at a reduced transfer cost. And by including STSM as a beneficiary of a financial, retirement, or insurance plan, you are able to pass on income you don’t need during your life. Together, we will end sexual violence in our community.
