One of the advantages of a planned gift is there are various ways to make an impact. Many planned gifts are made in the future. A simple example is changing the beneficiary on an IRA or retirement account to Shepherd Community Center. You continue to control your principal, income, and future disposition. Additional examples include:
Changing your will or trust.
Life insurance beneficiaries.
Adding beneficiaries to bank or investment accounts.
None of the above involve writing a check, but they will help sustain the impact of hope through Shepherd Community Center for generations to come.
