What are Planned Gifts?
A planned gift is any deferred or outright gift substantial enough to require a donor to consider his or her tax and financial situation along with his or her philanthropic intent. A planned gift usually requires the assistance of a professional advisor or gift planner to complete.

Because many donors are unable to release assets to make a major gift, they can make a substantial planned gift to Advocates for Children while providing important tax and income benefits to themselves or others. Also, donors can increase income or pass assets on to heirs and reduce or avoid estate and gift taxes.
