Planned Giving

Did you know there are smart and creative ways to support Water For People? There are ways in which you, your loved ones, and Water For People can all benefit at the same time. Such giving techniques are called “planned gifts.” With thoughtful planning today, you can make a transformative difference beyond your lifetime. You can make a future gift that costs nothing during your lifetime – such as including Water For People as a beneficiary in your will, retirement plan, or life insurance policy – or you can donate appreciated securities – such as stock – to make an immediate impact on our work and realize larger tax savings. To learn more about planned giving, please contact us at plannedgiving@waterforpeople.org or 720-488-4567.
