You can make a lasting gift to The Children's Village that may allow you or your family to avoid paying some types of taxes and/or perhaps earn extra income:

• Make a bequest through your will
• Set up a Charitable Remainder Trust or a Charitable Lead Trust
• Donate a paid insurance policy that names The Children's Village as the beneficiary
• Coming soon: The Children's Village Pooled Income Fund, which will allow you to earn extra income.

There are dedication opportunities available to publicly acknowledge your gift. For instance, you may wish to name a street on our campus, a worksite in the WAY Program, or even a cottage celebrate your life, to memorialize a loved one, or to commemorate a special occasion, such as your 50th wedding anniversary or 75th birthday.

Clearly, planned giving is an important topic that would likely involve family members and your financial advisor. We would like to provide you with more details in order to inform you and help you to make the best decision for you and your family at the appropriate time. Please call Linda Stutz, Vice President for Institutional Advancement, at 914-693-0600 ext 1413, or send an e-mail to Lstutz@childrensvillage to schedule a confidential phone conversation and share your ideas, or simply request more information.
