Artist with little girl Many types of assets can be used in creating a planned gift.  Some can offer you valuable tax savings while benefiting The Bushnell at the same time.

Life Insurance
Life insurance may be used in different ways in making a gift to The Bushnell.  Please contact The Bushnell's Planned Giving Office for more information.

Retirement Plans
The assets in a retirement plan can be taxed up to nearly 80% before any value can be passed on to heirs.  Using these assets to make a charitable bequest may offer significant tax savings on your estate.

Real Estate
There are a variety of ways to use real estate in making a planned gift to The Bushnell, including an outright gift, bequest, retained life estate and others.  The valuation and conditions for accepting gifts of real estate are determined on a case-by-case basis by The Bushnell's Gift Acceptance Committee.
