A charitable gift from your estate is a favored method of giving that enables you to achieve your financial goals and benefit the Garden in ways that may not be possible through lifetime gifts.

If your estate is subject to estate tax, giving through your estate plan generates a charitable estate tax deduction, which may result in substantial tax savings. You may direct all or a portion of your estate to the Garden.

Beneficiary Designation

While most assets are transferred through a will, retirement plans and life insurance policies are governed by a separate document, called a beneficiary designation.
