As we look to the future of the Tatton Brown Rahman Syndrome (TBRS) Community, we invite you to consider a powerful way to make a lasting impact: legacy giving. By including the TBRS Community in your will or estate plans, you can create a legacy that will continue to support our mission for generations to come. We are proud to introduce the Dorothy G. Hatton Legacy Society, named in honor of a cherished TBRS grandma who was the first person to ever include the TBRS Community in her planned giving. Her vision and generosity inspired the creation of this society, which now invites others to follow in her footsteps.
The Impact of Legacy Giving on the TBRS Community
Legacy gifts play a crucial role in ensuring the long-term sustainability of the TBRS Community. These gifts allow us to continue our work in providing essential resources, supporting families affected by TBRS, and advancing critical research toward treatment development. Legacy giving helps us to expand our programs, increase our outreach, and offer hope to those living with TBRS. By including the TBRS Community in your estate plans, you are helping to secure a brighter future for everyone impacted by this rare condition.
Financial and Tax Advantages for Donors
In addition to making a significant impact on our community, legacy giving offers several financial and tax advantages for donors:
- **Estate Tax Reduction:** Including charitable bequests in your will can reduce the overall tax liability of your estate. In many cases, the amount left to a charitable organization like the TBRS Community can be deducted from the estate’s value, potentially lowering the estate tax burden.
- **Income Tax Benefits:** Depending on your financial situation, certain types of legacy gifts may offer immediate income tax benefits. For example, gifts made through charitable remainder trusts can provide income to you or your beneficiaries during your lifetime, with the remainder going to the TBRS Community, potentially resulting in significant tax savings.
- **Flexibility and Control:** Legacy gifts can be tailored to meet your financial goals and philanthropic desires. Whether you choose to leave a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or even a particular asset, you can ensure that your gift aligns with your values and intentions.
- **Enduring Legacy:** Your gift will have a lasting impact, ensuring that the TBRS Community continues to thrive and support future generations. Becoming a member of the Dorothy G. Hatton Legacy Society means that your legacy will live on, reflecting your commitment to making a difference.
