Beneficiary Designations

Name the Housatonic Valley Association as a beneficiary in your life insurance, 401 (k) plan, IRA or other retirement plan.

Charitable Remainder Trust

Receive income for life with a Charitable Remainder Trust or Tax-Advantaged Income Fund.

Gifting an Asset That Has High Capital Gain

You may no longer need or want to own a piece of property, boat or other appreciated asset, that if donated, may save you taxes and help support HVA’s mission.

Please consult with your legal and tax advisors about any of these Giving Options and feel free to give us a call.

Thank you.
