Now you can make an even greater impact by including PRF in your will, or naming PRF as a beneficiary of your retirement plan or insurance policy. The PRF Legacy Society are forward-thinking individuals who are committed to curing children and young adults with Progeria and to securing PRF’s future by making a planned gift.

Society membership allows you to fulfill your financial and philanthropic goals, while also supporting PRF’s quest to cure Progeria. And because Progeria has a biological connection to heart disease and the aging process, your gift may also impact your family  and  millions  of  aging adults. A true legacy.

  • Provides for your family after your death.
  • Allows you to distribute your assets according to your wishes.
  • Can save on estate taxes the government would otherwise take.
  • Lets you leave a legacy to PRF without giving up assets now.

A will is the most popular way to make a future gift. 

How: Name PRF in a will or trust and designate a stated dollar amount, specific property, shares of stock, percentage of the estate, or share of your remaining estate.

Benefit: Receive an estate tax deduction

[/et_pb_blurb][/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=”1_2″ saved_specialty_column_type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|20px|30px|20px” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”DESIGNATE PRF A BENEFICIARY OF YOUR RETIREMENT ASSETS” url=”https://www.progeriaresearch.org/planned-giving/” _builder_version=”4.14.5″ custom_margin=”||” custom_margin_tablet=”||35px” custom_margin_phone=”||15px|” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Did you know that your retirement plan assets may face multiple taxation for your heirs? When thinking about your estate plan and making the right choices for your family, please consider donating all or part of your retirement assets, such as your IRA, 401k, 403b, pension or other tax deferred plan.

How: Name PRF as beneficiary of your 401K or other retirement plan

Benefit: Leaves less highly taxed assets for your beneficiaries

Donating retirement plan assets may avoid income and estate taxes. If you’re 70 ½ or older, you can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) of up to $100,000 per year from your IRA. No income tax is owed on the QCD leading to tax savings. A great way to make a significant gift now!

A life insurance policy can allow you to leave a legacy—not just for the people you love but for organizations and causes that are important to you.

How: (1) Name PRF as beneficiary of all or a percentage of your life insurance policy; or (2) Transfer ownership of your current policy – either paid in full or for which you will continue making premium payments

Benefit: Designating PRF as a beneficiary allows you to make a large gift at little cost. If you transfer the policy to PRF now, you may receive a charitable tax deduction for the present value of the policy and for payment of any future premiums

Box 3453, Peabody, Massachusetts, USA 01961
