Why Planned Giving?

Planned giving provides security and benefits to our donors and the Brain Injury Alliance of Colorado. Many planned giving options provide financial benefits to the donor that far exceeds the value of the actual contribution. The Internal Revenue Service provides generous incentives for charitable gifts made through estate planning. Some of these gifts can provide lifetime income to the donor (or others) while generating charitable deductions against taxes on ordinary income and capital gains.

Most Popular Planned Gifts

Gifts from Your Will or Trust

You can make a gift that costs nothing during your lifetime.

Gifts of Stock/Appreciated Assets

You can give stock and realize larger tax savings.

Charitable Gift Annuity

You can receive income for life in return for your gift.

Gifts of Retirement Assets

Gifts of assets in qualified retirement accounts include an IRA, 401(k) and 403(b). When assets are contributed to BIAC, we would receive 100% of each dollar donated as funds would not be subject to any income tax upon withdrawal.

You can donate your house, continue to live there, and get a tax break all at the same time.
