Transformative Ways to Support Pathfinders

You can name Pathfinders to receive a dollar amount or percentage of your assets through your will or trust by including a simple paragraph, such as: 

  • I give $________ to Pathfinders Milwaukee, Inc., 4200 N Holton St., Suite 400, Milwaukee, WI 53212 to be used for the area of greatest need within the organization.

OR

  • I give ________% of my estate to Pathfinders Milwaukee, Inc., 4200 N Holton St., Suite 400, Milwaukee, WI 53212 to be used for the area of greatest need within the organization.

Your financial or tax advisor can help you discover if a will or trust designation is right for you.

A Donor Advised Fund is a charitable investment account, helping you impact causes close to your heart while reducing your taxable income. DAFs are becoming increasingly popular among people at all income levels and we are seeing more gifts from DAFs to Pathfinders. Ask your financial or tax advisor if this strategy is right for you.

Despite fluctuations in the market, many people still have stock in their portfolio that has appreciated since the time of purchase. Benefits of giving
stock include charitable tax deductions and the ability to save cash for your future needs. Check with your financial advisor about making a gift of stock to Pathfinders.

People over age 70 ½ can make a charitable gift from their IRA. These donations are called Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) and allow you to make a significant gift to Pathfinders, fulfill your required minimum distribution and reduce your taxable income. You can also name Pathfinders as a beneficiary on your IRA or retirement plan.
