How to Make a Gift
To leave your retirement assets to Early Connections, you will need to complete a beneficiary designation form provided by your retirement plan custodian. If you designate Early Connections as beneficiary, we will benefit from the full value of your gift because your IRA assets will not be taxed at your death. Your estate will benefit from an estate tax charitable deduction for the gift.
Did you know that 60%-70% of your retirement assets may be taxed if you leave them to your heirs at your death? As a charity, we are not taxed upon receiving an IRA or other retirement plan assets.
When planning your gift, please be sure to use our legal name and address:
Colorado Springs Child Nursery Centers, Inc. (EIN 84-0632406)
