Legacy Giving

Have you considered leaving a gift to Christ Community Health services Augusta?

Legacy giving can provide tax advantages to you and your estate and can leverage your gift to provide greater funding to a selected recipient than just a simple cash donation.

According to leavealegacy.org, "Legacy gifts provide future support for charity. Contributions by will, trust, other forms of written designation, life-income arrangements and endowment gifts, all represent forms of legacy giving. Any individual, at any point in their life, can create a legacy gift."

It can be as easy as naming a charity on the beneficiary form on a savings, checking or pension account, or through a more complex instrument like a charitable trust. All these gifts represent a powerful and meaningful way for individuals to create a philanthropic legacy for their community and the organizations they care about.”

Christ Community Health Services of Augusta has formed an alliance with an Augusta financial firm who can help with setting up your legacy gift.
