PLANNED GIVING
You can make a charitable donation by naming Adventure Cycling as a beneficiary in your will. The federal government encourages these gifts or bequests by allowing an unlimited estate-tax charitable deduction.

There are five ways you can make a bequest:

General Bequest
This is the most popular type of charitable bequest. You simply leave a specified dollar amount to the designated charity.
Residual Bequest
Your estate will cover all debts, taxes, expenses, and specific bequests. The remaining amount -- the residue -- will be transferred to Adventure Cycling.
Contingent Bequest
You can ask that Adventure Cycling receive all or a portion of your estate only under certain circumstances. For example, you can name Adventure Cycling as a beneficiary of your estate only if there are no surviving close family members. Childless couples sometimes provide for the entire estate to go to the surviving spouse, or if the spouse does not survive, to Adventure Cycling.
Percentage Bequest
You can designate a percentage of the estate or of the residual estate. If the size of the estate changes, the bequest to Adventure Cycling will change in the same proportion.

If you would like more information about how to use your will to accomplish your charitable objectives, please contact Julie Emnett, at or call at (800) 755-2453 ext. 236.
