Make a Legacy Gift

Leave a Legacy of Animal Protection

What Legacy do you Want to Leave for Animals?

With multiple legacy gift options to choose from, there is a way for everyone to make a lasting impact. A gift to the Animal Legal Defense Fund allows you to design charitable gifts that fulfill your philanthropic objectives while minimizing your after-tax cost. Choose the option that best reflects your wishes and help us improve the lives of animals for generations to come!

Will or Trust Gift: A bequest in a will or trust is the most common type of legacy gift, allowing you to give to the causes and people you care about most. These gifts allow you the flexibility to customize your gift to fit your wishes — whether by leaving a specific amount, a portion of the residual estate, or a contingent gift that takes effect under certain conditions.

Beneficiary Designations: Many people do not realize they can designate accounts to nonprofit organizations. Assets such as retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and savings accounts can be gifted to the Animal Legal Defense Fund simply by completing a beneficiary designation form.

Charitable Gift Annuity: Charitable gift annuities start at $20,000 and provide lifetime income to you each year with the remainder gifted to the Animal Legal Defense Fund.
