Is the IRS your chosen charity? It sounds like a silly question, but for many people the Internal Revenue Service will be their ultimate beneficiary. If unprotected, capital gains and estate taxes can take a big bite out of all you have worked so hard to build. |
By utilizing the most current tax laws to your advantage, you can dramatically cut your tax liability in your estate plan by making a gift to the Sacramento Children's Home. Many of these options come with a revenue stream that you can take advantage of immediately. This is a true win-win situation. Consider placing the Sacramento Children's Home in your estate plan. We have put you in touch with expert advisors (not affiliated with SCH) who can assist. To find out more, contact Allie Delehant at 916.290.8203. |
