Why a Long-Term Bequest Plan Matters

  1. Sustained Security and Growth The nonprofit sector is often subject to fluctuations in funding. A comprehensive bequest plan enables you to anticipate these changes, ensuring your organization remains secure during economic downturns. By establishing a reliable stream of income from bequests, you can plan for both immediate needs and future projects that may have been previously out of reach.

  2. Funding Large Projects Have you dreamed of launching a large-scale initiative but found funding elusive? A long-term financial plan allows you to identify and allocate funds for significant projects. With bequest income projected over the next ten years, you can strategically plan and execute ambitious projects that can elevate your nonprofit’s mission and impact.

  3. Peace of Mind for Staff Payments Employee retention and satisfaction are crucial for any nonprofit. A secure financial future means you can consistently pay your staff, reducing turnover and fostering a positive work environment. This stability not only enhances productivity but also strengthens your organization’s reputation within the community.
