Your Planned Gift Can Create a Future Where Everyone Thrives 

A planned gift allows you to make a lasting contribution reflecting the values and passions important to you. Establishing a planned gift allows you to provide for your loved ones, while also ensuring Second Harvest has the support needed to end the challenges of food insecurity—for generations to come. 

This form of charitable giving makes a lasting impact on the community and involves a person’s assets or estate rather than current income. You can arrange to make a planned gift in several ways, including a will. Many people set aside a certain dollar amount or leave a percentage of their estate after their lifetime. Some planned gifts can be designed to accomplish certain financial goals such as reducing your tax obligation. Bequests allow individuals the make larger gifts than they otherwise could during their lifetime.
