Create a Lasting Legacy
Leave a gift that extends beyond your lifetime.
The natural world depends on the actions we take today, and your legacy can help protect it for generations to come. By including the Coos Watershed Association in your plans, you ensure lasting care for the places that matter most.
We gratefully accept unrestricted, tax-deductible bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts under Internal Revenue Code Sections 2055, 2106, and 2522, enabling your gift to have the greatest possible impact.
Regardless of how much money you have, planning ahead can help you continue supporting the causes you care about after you are gone.
Our federal tax ID number is: 93-1146207 and our date of incorporation was April 14, 1994. Coos Watershed Association is tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
We recommend that you consult your attorney and financial adviser about making a legacy gift that is right for you.
Here are a few of the most common ways to make a legacy gift.
Bequest: Allocate a specific amount, percentage, or remainder of your estate or trust or designate specific assets to Coos Watershed Association in your will.
Retirement Plan Designation: Make Coos Watershed Association a beneficiary of your IRA or other retirement plan. (And, if you are over 70½, you can already direct Qualified Charitable Distributions from your IRA.)
Life Insurance Policy: Designate a specific amount or percentage of your life insurance policy to Coos Watershed Association.
