Planned Giving

A bequest to the Butte Humane Society will confirm a gift of life for abused and abandoned animals.  Help make a difference and include us in your will.

Planned giving provides many options and benefits for you and animals.  You can receive tax benefits and increase your current income or provide additional retirement income. Certain types of gifts can reduce the amount of tax you are accountable for during your lifetime; some actually eliminate estate taxes altogether. To ensure you and the animals are receiving the full benefit of a considered gift, educate yourself on all the options available to you.  Please feel welcome to contact us with any questions you may have and we'll be happy to answer them for you.

Some options include:

• Bequests through your will
• Charitable Gift Annuities: Provide numerous tax benefits to you, and you are guaranteed income for the rest of your life
• Life Insurance Gifts: Make the Butte Humane Society the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy
• Retirement Plans: Donate your interest in an IRA or other qualified savings plan
