BEQUESTS
Through your Last Will and Testament, you can leave a time-honored, lasting legacy to Converge and be remembered after you go home to be with the Lord. Such charitable bequests generate an estate tax deduction.
LIFE INSURANCE
This is one of the easiest ways to give a generous gift. You may give a policy you already own, assign the dividends as a gift or name Converge as a beneficiary. Upon your death, the cash proceeds are given promptly and directly to Converge, without tax liability or administrative costs.
CHARITABLE TRUSTS
A Charitable Trust is a creative, tax-smart solution that provides both charitable giving to Converge and income for you or your heirs. Generally, it is best to fund Charitable Trusts with highly appreciated assets, such as stock or real estate, in which you have a low-cost basis.
CHARITABLE GIFT ANNUITIES
A gift annuity works like an annuity purchased from an insurance company. You enter into a contract with our annuity partner to transfer cash or appreciated property to Converge, in exchange for guaranteed specific income payments for life to you or a designated beneficiary.
