Planned Gifts to The Masonic Charity Foundation of CT

Through planned giving, your generosity can spring eternal.

Your planned gift supports The Masonic Charity Foundation of Connecticut or its Endowment Fund. Gifts to the Endowment Fund are held in trust and prudently invested by Masonicare’s Investment Committee. Only income earned from our endowment is used to support innovative programs and services, and to expand Masonicare’s reach throughout Connecticut. Donors who give $10,000 or more in one year restricted to the Endowment Fund are recognized as members of our Baldwin Society. Donors contributing outright, unrestricted gifts of $10,000 or more to The Masonic Charity Foundation of Connecticut in a one-year period are recognized as Cleaveland Society members. Unlike endowment gifts, which are restricted with only the earnings available for use, unrestricted donations can be used in their entirety to support the healthcare programs, services and facilities offered by Masonicare and its affiliates.

Choose a gift plan that is right for you and leave a legacy. Planned gifts are typically made with accumulated (rather than current) assets. Some planned-giving arrangements allow donors to take an immediate income tax deduction, and receive a fixed income stream; all provide a way to sustain the Masonicare mission beyond your lifetime.
