Legacy Giving
Planned gifts, such as those made through a will or estate plan, often allow you to make the biggest impact on the causes you care about most. A planned gift is usually set up to incorporate tax-planning strategies as well as your retirement choices, and can be customized in a wide variety of ways to suit your needs.
To make it easier for you, Valley Humane Society has partnered with FreeWill: a free online resource that guides you through the process of creating a legally valid will. In about 20 minutes, you can secure your future, protect what you love, and make a gift to Valley Humane Society to build a legacy that creates a brighter future for cats and dogs.
To get started, please contact Development Manager Claire Maniti at (925) 426-8656 ext. 117 or email to find out more about planned gifts that start making a difference during your lifetime.
