LEGACY AND PLANNED GIVING.

To RSVP for the October 16 or 17 Estate & Trust Planning Workshop, click here.

Designating Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter in your will, trust, or other charitable giving plans allows us to continue to provide lifesaving programs to thousands of animals for years to come. And by doing so, you will become a member of our Friends Forever Legacy Society, made up of individuals who have designated the shelter as a charitable beneficiary in their estate plans.

If you are age 70½ or over, you may transfer up to $100,000 per year from your IRA directly to an eligible charity tax-free. Instead of being taxed as income to you, the animals benefit from 100% of the distribution when donated directly to us. Contact your financial advisor today to facilitate your tax-free IRA gift to Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter.

DONATE APPRECIATED STOCKS, BONDS, OR MUTUAL FUNDS

The same is true of appreciated stock. You can avoid capital gains by donating stock directly to us. No age requirement for that.

RECOMMEND A GIFT THROUGH YOUR DONOR-ADVISED FUND

If you have a donor-advised fund, consider recommending a grant to the Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter. Ask your financial advisor to designate a gift to the Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter and, please let us know when you do, so we can say thank-you.

Through your kindness, homeless animals will be given the necessary care they deserve today, tomorrow and always.
