Ways to Leave Your Legacy
Your Will or Trust
Including AdkAction in your will is one of the simplest ways to make a lasting difference. You can designate a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or a remainder gift after other obligations are fulfilled.
Legal name: AdkActionOrg, Inc.
Federal Tax ID (EIN): 27-4514665
Principal address: 1745 Main Street, Keeseville, NY 12944
Your Retirement Plan
Naming AdkAction as a beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), or other retirement plan can be an easy and impactful way to give. Because these assets may be subject to taxes when passed to heirs, designating AdkAction can help maximize your charitable impact.
Your Life Insurance Policy
If you have a life insurance policy you no longer need for its original purpose, consider naming AdkAction as a beneficiary. This option allows you to make a significant gift without affecting your current financial resources.
Your Bank or Investment Accounts
You can also name AdkAction as a beneficiary of your checking or savings account, brokerage account, or certificate of deposit. This simple process typically requires only completing a form with your financial institution.
Other Giving Options
Options like charitable gift annuities or charitable remainder trusts may provide income for you or your loved ones during your lifetime, while supporting AdkAction’s mission in the future. We encourage you to speak with your financial advisor about the best giving plan for your goals.
If you are considering a legacy gift, or if you would simply like more information, we are happy to assist you.
