Planned Gifts

A Foundation for the Future

An estate or planned gift to Boys & Girls Clubs of Manitowoc County creates a lasting legacy for you and your family – as well as impacting many young people whose lives will be positively influenced by your generosity. Your gift will be used to support the continued growth and access of Boys & Girls Clubs programs for our community’s youth.

Planned Giving is a highly personal way to invest in the future. By developing an estate plan with your financial advisor or attorney, you can reduce the overall tax burden of your estate while providing a lasting legacy for children and youth in our community.

A Planned Gift may be in the form of cash, securities and property and made through a bequest, charitable gift annuities, retirement assets, and trusts, for example.
