Ways to Support the Adult Center of Prescott

The Adult Center of Prescott is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization which provides opportunities and facilities for social interaction, recreation, education, information and entertainment to the adult population of the greater Prescott area.

A gift to the Adult Center is an enduring gift which benefits all citizens of our community. Many gifts offer significant tax benefits to the donor, and can be made through one or more of the following programs:

Bequests

You may choose to name the Adult Center as a beneficiary in your will. A charitable bequest for the Adult Center can be included in your will when it is written or revised or it may be added through a codicil, a separate document amending your existing will. All charitable bequests are fully deductible from your gross estate so are not subject to estate taxation. (Examples of bequest language are attached).

Endowments

Individual endowments (permanent funds for support) can be established for an appropriate purpose requested by the donor ($5,000 minimum donation) or directed to the general endowment fund which supports all activities of the Adult Center.

Planned or Deferred Gifts

This type of contribution is planned during the donor’s lifetime with the resulting benefit to the Adult Center deferred until a future date. The donor can benefit from lowered estate taxes in some instances with this plan.

Gifts of Insurance

Life Insurance may be a current or deferred gift. A paid-up life insurance policy can be transferred to the Adult Center as irrevocable owner of the policy.

Trusts

Charitable lead trusts or charitable remainder trusts are excellent vehicles for significant giving and can offer major tax benefits to donors. Please secure professional advice prior to making any commitments to insure the best possible result for your generosity.

Unrestricted Gifts

If you choose to make an unrestricted gift to the Adult Center, the funds would be utilized for either immediate or long range Center needs in accordance with guidance provided by the Executive Director.

Memorial Gifts

Memorial book funds may be set up in two ways. For a one time gift following the death of a friend or loved one, funds may be sent to the Adult Center of Prescott, in care of Joan Shay. A memorial fund may be set up in the Adult Center Endowment Fund ($5,000 minimum donation). A plaque will be made in honor of the deceased friend or loved one.
