A Guide to Planned Giving with the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation
WHAT IS PLANNED GIVING?
Planned giving is a way to make a gift to the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation through estate or financial planning. A planned gift takes your needs, as well as the needs of your loved ones, into consideration while helping support the mission of the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation well beyond your years.
There are various types of planned giving options that you may wish to consider:
WILLS & BEQUESTS
Creating a will, revising an existing will, or adding a codicil to include the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation in your bequest are the simplest ways to implement planned giving, and they are the easiest to change. You maintain the use, benefit, and control of your assets for as long as you need them — for as long as you are alive.
