Legacy Giving


"Legacy Giving" involves leaving a charitable bequest to American Indian Services in one's will or trust, ensuring a lasting impact. Being a 501(c)(3) public charity, such bequests hold tax-deductible status, potentially easing estate tax burdens on family members. The process involves providing the organization's tax ID to an attorney and specifying the desired nature of the gift, whether a percentage of the estate, a particular asset or sum, or a residual bequest. Additionally, American Indian Services can be designated as a beneficiary—full, partial, or contingent—of retirement accounts or life insurance policies. Consultation with a legal advisor or tax consultant is recommended for proper estate planning. American Indian Services' 4-star rating on Charity Navigator underscores its financial transparency and effectiveness as independently evaluated.
