North Coast Legacy

Getting Started...

If leaving a legacy to benefit the Sequoia Humane Society interests you:
Contact a professional advisor. They can make sure you get the maximum tax and legal advantages allowed for your gift. They can also help you write your will and review your estate plan.

Time is flying by . . . you can easily change your mind but when you are gone, your chance to help will also be gone . . . act now!

Questions and Answers...

Who can leave a legacy?
You don't have to be wealthy to leave a legacy. Everybody has an estate. Your money, property and personal belongings constitute your estate.

How do I leave a legacy? Contact your insurance agent, lawyer, accountant, or financial planner. Your favorite nonprofit organization and/or North Coast Legacy are also good sources of information.

Can I leave a gift in memory of a loved one or for a specific purpose or organization?
You sure can, if you state it in your will. By designating your wishes legally, you can guarantee that the legacy goes to the causes you care about.

Do I have to notify the organization that I've left them a gift?
It is entirely your decision, but informing them would allow acknowledgment and recognition of your generosity.

Is money the only planned gift I can give?
No. You can donate your house or car, life insurance, stocks and bonds, furniture or art. Ask a professional how it's done.

North Coast Legacy is an educational campaign working hand in hand with nonprofit organizations and professional advisors to encourage North Coast residents to leave planned gifts to nonprofit organizations in their will or estate plan.

Why Planned Giving?
Many North Coast residents volunteer regularly and financially support nonprofit groups of their choice. When they're gone, their support is sorely missed.

By leaving a legacy through a gift in a will, their commitment can continue.

Charitable and nonprofit organizations play an essential role in our lives. Their achievements may come in the form of fighting a terrible disease, improving quality, of life, or bringing beauty to, the world through the arts and education.

But the truth is that these special organizations need financial assistance from people like you in order to accomplish their goals in our communities.
