Planned Giving

Create a legacy that will impact wish kids for years to come. By including the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Iowa in your estate plans, you can provide the resources necessary to grant inspiring wishes for children now and in the future.  

A deferred gift can help you balance your financial goals and your charitable interests - all while possibly achieving significant tax benefits. A planned gift, such as a bequest in your will or trust, life insurance designations, or stock donation ensures your support for the children we serve well into the future. You'll do more than help grant wishes, you'll create a legacy that will impact our wish kids for years to come. 

Fill out our Letter of Intent for Estate Gift to create your legacy gift.
