Gifts Anyone Can Afford
Did you know there are ways to support the Ventana Wilderness Alliance that don't affect your current lifestyle or your family's security?
You can support the VWA with gifts that don't impact the way you live either by designating the VWA to receive estate assets in the future or by making immediate gifts to us of assets that are "out of sight and out of mind."
The Benefits
- You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime.
- You can make a gift that leaves your cash flow and current financial planning unchanged.
- You don't have to use cash to make your gift; you can "buy low and give high" by making your gift with appreciated securities instead.
