Future Greatness Begins With Planning

There are many opportunities to provide lasting impact, including a multi-year donation pledge, planned gift from your estate or a one-time, above-and-beyond gift.

We can provide access to a sophisticated network of financial and estate planners to help provide clear gift illustrations on the tax benefits of a legacy trust with a charitable component.

All donations to the Foundation are tax-deductible (EIN #33-0643628). Checks can be made out to “Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Orange Coast Foundation” and can be mailed to 17701 Cowan, Suite 110, Irvine, CA 92614.  To schedule a consultation or make a gift to the Foundation, please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

There are many ways to give that help support our Club members

The Benefits of Estate Planning

Leaving a legacy allows your philanthropy to the Club to live on. A strong estate plan can helps you do just that.  Designating the Foundation as a beneficiary of your retirement, investment or bank account or your life insurance policy is a simple, flexible way to leave a legacy in support of our organization – while also maximizing what you pass along to your loved ones.

Bequests

A bequest in your will is a great way to make a gift that demonstrates your commitment while preserving your assets for the rest of your life.  A bequest can be to a person, or it can be a charitable bequest to a nonprofit organization, trust or foundation. Anyone can make a bequest—in any amount—to an individual or charity. Learn More

Gifts of Stocks and Bonds

Donating appreciated securities, including stocks or bonds, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to our Club.  Giving the gift of a stock can provide specific benefits for the donor, particularly if the stock has appreciated in value since the donor can avoid paying taxes on those earnings or gains.

Gifts of Retirement Assets

Donating a part or all of your unused retirement assets such as a gift from your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), pension or other tax-deferred plan is an excellent way to make a gift to our organization and reduce tax liabilities. Learn More

Gifts of Insurance

A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a philanthropic gift. If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, you could consider making a gift of your insurance policy. For example, you may have purchased a policy to provide for minor children and they are now financially independent adults. Learn More

Gifts of Cash

A cash gift is the easiest way for a donor to make an impactful gift to the Foundation. Learn More

Gifts of Real Estate

Donating appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch or commercial property would make a great gift to our organization and reduce tax liabilities. Learn More

Gifts of Business Interests

As a business owner, you have the opportunity not only to build your business and accumulate wealth for yourself and your family, but also to accomplish your philanthropic goals through charitable planning. A gift of your corporate stock or assets can provide you with tax and income benefits as well as help further our mission.

Annuities

Depending on your personal situation, an annuity can help you meet your personal financial needs while helping to invest in the futures of the youth in Orange County.  A gift annuity agreement is a lifelong contract between a single nonprofit organization and an individual or couple. The terms of this agreement will lock in the rate, amount and timing of all payments. Learn More
