Imagine the Future You Could Help Create.

A future where every survivor has access to safety, support, and the opportunity to build a new beginning. Through planned giving, you can help make that future possible.

Planned giving allows you to make a lasting investment in RESPOND’s future through a gift included in your financial or estate plans. These gifts can take many forms and offer a meaningful way to support the causes you care about while also considering what is right for you and your loved ones.

Ways to Create Your Legacy

There are many ways to leave a lasting gift to RESPOND. However you may choose to give, your legacy can create a future free from violence.

  • Include RESPOND in Your Will or Trust
    A gift through your will or trust can provide lasting support for survivors and families for years to come. You can designate a specific amount you would like to donate to helping survivors in need.
  • Name RESPOND as a Beneficiary
    Naming RESPOND as a beneficiary of a retirement account, life insurance policy, bank account, or other financial account can extend your support into the future and help ensure survivors have somewhere to turn.
  • Give Appreciated Assets
    A gift of appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds can turn an asset you have held into an opportunity to change lives. Your gift can help RESPOND provide new beginnings for survivors and their families.
  • Give the Gift of Property
    RESPOND’s founding mothers opened their doors to survivors in need of a safe place to turn. Today, safe and welcoming spaces remain essential to our work. A gift of real estate or other property can help RESPOND continue creating places of safety where survivors can turn to for haven.

Planning Your Legacy

Planned giving is a personal decision; you don’t have to navigate it alone. We encourage you to speak with your attorney, financial advisor, or tax professional. They can help you decide which type of gift is right for you.

If you’re thinking about including RESPOND in your plans, here is some helpful information to have on hand:
