The deep levels of satisfaction
of making a significant contribution combined with the tax benefits
some planned gifts can provide are of interest to many. If you
have a desire to make the world a better place and the personal
satisfaction thus obtained, the following options will be of interest.
Wills and Bequests
Planning your will is one way of ensuring you provide for those
you care about. In addition to planning for those you love and
depend on you, your will also allows you to benefit The Centre
for Esoteric Studies through a gift of money, property and other
assets.
Charitable Gift Annuities
A charitable gift annuity is a way of donating an irrevocable
gift to The Centre for Esoteric Studies in return for guaranteed
income for the rest of your life. The portion of your gift not
used to provide the annuity income is used by the Society as you
direct.
Gifts of Insurance
A gift of life insurance is a simple, thoughtful and often overlooked
way to make a gift to The Centre for Esoteric Studies. Insurance
allows you to make a substantial gift without taking on a large
expense.
Gifts of Securities
Changes announced in the 1997 Federal Budget make it much more
attractive to donate gifts of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, bills,
futures and other publicly-traded securities to The Centre for
Esoteric Studies.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
& Gifts of Residual Interest
If you have cash or an asset that you have considered leaving
to The Centre for Esoteric Studies in your Will but would like
the tax benefit now, then a charitable remainder trust or a gift
of residual interest may be your answer.
