Make a Planned Gift
The planned giving opportunities of HI-USA can enable you to make a substantial gift in ways that can complement your personal financial planning.
A planned gift to HI-USA can also bring financial benefits to you. These planned options can generate life long income, convert low-yielding assets into a higher income stream at reduced capital gain costs, obtain significant income tax deductions, and reduce or eliminate estate taxes.
Donors often find that a combination of planned gifts produces the best results. We are happy to talk with you and your financial advisor to design the most advantageous ways of giving.
Our Programs include the following:
The Hostelling Legacy Society recognizes all those who have made a planned gift to HI-USA. It can be as simple as putting HI-USA in your will for a certain sum, establishing a life-income plan, or naming HI-USA as beneficiary of your life insurance policy or retirement plan.
HI-USA also accepts outright gifts of stocks and bonds and real estate. Gifts of appreciated securities are also excellent assets for funding life income gifts such as charitable annuities, deferred annuities, pooled income funds, and charitable trusts.
If you are considering including HI-USA in your estate plans, or would like to learn more, we suggest a gift-planning consultation. Please email giving@hiusa.org.
Or telephone us or use postal mail.
