More ways to make an impact
Gifts in a will or trust
Donations in your will or trust that reflect your values – like environmental protection – are (by far) the most popular type of planned gift. Learn more, or get help starting your will (for free!).
Beneficiary designations
Gifting assets not covered by your will — like 401(k) or IRA accounts — may help your heirs avoid unwanted taxes, even if you’re below the estate tax threshold, while also supporting a thriving San Francisco Bay.
Gifts that pay you back
Give assets to defend San Francisco Bay while providing yourself or others with income for a period of time or distributions at a later date.
