Wills and Bequests PDF Print E-mail

Wills and BequestsYou can make a charitable gift to San Diego Human Dignity Foundation by naming us as a beneficiary in your will. The federal government encourages these gifts or bequests, by allowing an unlimited estate tax charitable deduction.

There are three ways you can make a bequest:

Specific Bequest

You designate a specific dollar amount, specific percentage, or specific property to San Diego Human Dignity Foundation.

Residual Bequest Your estate will pay all debts, taxes, expenses, and specific bequests. The remaining amount-the residue-will be transferred to San Diego Human Dignity Foundation.

Contingent Bequest You can ask that the San Diego Human Dignity Foundation receive all or a portion of your estate only under certain circumstances. For example, you can name the Foundation as a beneficiary of your estate only if there are no surviving partners or close family members.

 If you are a planned gift donor, the San Diego Human Dignity Foundation will honor you with membership in the Legacy Society.

If you have already made a plan to give to the San Diego Human Dignity Foundation in your will or estate plan, please contact us. We realize that with your special gift, you consider us to be part of your family, and we want to do our best to keep you informed as to how your gift will be used and to give you the opportunity to tell us of your wishes.

Also, in recognition of donor generosity, SDHDF has established a Donor Benefit Program. We would be happy to review any aspect of this program with you at length. Call 619-291-3383 or contact us by clicking here and our Executive Director or a member of our Board will contact you immediately.
