Endowments Fund

Legacy Gifts

An endowment raises money that is placed in a special fund and invested. The interest from the fund is spent each year on operating expenses. A solid endowment fund provides a stable source of regular income for the programs operated by Coast and will offer opportunities to expand consumer services where there are needs for staff and other resources.

Legacy of Courage is often an opportunity for people to make planned financial gifts to Coast through an immediate gift from accumulated wealth or income, or through their wills and estates. Many people choose to have their gift endowed so their funds can be used in perpetuity.

A planned gift may include:

• a gift or bequest made after deliberate consideration while creating or reviewing your Financial, Retirement, Estate or Will Plan;
• a gift that requires some type of discussion and involvement of your professional advisors (e.g. Will, 'listed' shares, life insurance or other financial vehicle);
• a gift from your current income or possibly from your accumulated wealth;
• a gift towards current projects or to the Legacy of Courage to assist in perpetuity;
• a gift of property or real estate.
