Planning a gift makes good sense. As you make sound decisions for your financial future, you can also ensure the growth of organizations that make a difference in our community. You can make a significant charitable impact at the Delray Beach Public Library by structuring a gift that reduces your tax liabilities while permanently endowing services, events and education that you and your family have enjoyed and would like to share with another.
A planned gift is a charitable contribution of any asset, current or deferred, that can directly benefit both you and the Library. Though bequests and wills are the most prominent sources of planned gifts, contributions of securities, tangible property, real estate and life insurance benefit the Library today and can provide you with even greater tax deductions. Charitable gift annuities allow you to give cash or an asset in return for a life income paid by our organizations. IRAs and other retirement plans, which can be most heavily taxed in an estate, can be designated to the Library to reduce your present income tax liability.
Our development staff would be happy to design a gift strategy that is right for you and will help you and your family meet your philanthropic goals.
