Planned Giving

"I wish I could do more" is the comment we often hear from friends of American Institute for Cancer Research. Planned Giving is a means of making a charitable gift part of a donor's overall financial, estate, tax and philanthropic planning, maximizing the benefits to both the donor and the charity, and often achieving significant tax savings.

Increasing the impact of your giving often can be achieved at very low cost. It's just a matter of planning WHAT to give, HOW to give and WHEN to give. The information on these pages illustrates many ways of making a "planned gift" and our staff can be of even more help.

Individuals who support the Institute through a planned gift automatically become members of the League of Willful Fighters and receive a special membership certificate.
