Beneficiary Designation

Designate Make-A-Wish Colorado as a beneficiary of your IRAs, retirement plans, or life insurance policies.

Gifts That Pay You Income

Earn income for yourself or a beneficiary through assets gifted to Make-A-Wish Colorado (Charitable Gift Annuity, Charitable Remainder Trust).

Charitable Lead Trust

If you want to make an impact now at Make-A-Wish and also provide for your family later, consider setting up a charitable lead trust. You transfer cash or other assets to a trust that makes payments to Make-A-Wish for a period of time. When the term is up, the remaining trust passes to your family or other beneficiaries you select.

Gifts of Real Estate or Other Tangible Property

Please contact Jenna Hardy to further discuss your interest in making a gift of real estate or other tangible property.

Qualified Charitable Distributions

Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), also known as IRA Charitable Rollovers, are the savviest way for individuals age 70½ or older to use their IRAs to maximize their charitable impact. If you have questions contact Jenna Hardy at [email protected]
