Making a Planned Gift to Good Shepherd Housing
Planned gifts to Good Shepherd Housing have benefits that last a lifetime —
and beyond — for both Good Shepherd Housing and you. When you include GSH (tax id# 23-7447962) in plans for your
estate, you may be able to reduce your tax burden, increase your income, and
create a legacy for your family.
There are a number of gift planning options, from a bequest
in your will to life-income gifts, which provide you with income for a period
of time before GSH may use your gift. The best plan for you will balance your
charitable and financial goals while supporting the legacy of Good Shepherd
Housing.
Memorials/Honorariums
Celebrate a life or honor a special event and contribute to the well being of those in need. To make a donation in honor of
or in memory of an individual, couple or family, please include the name and
address of the next of kin or the honoree with your donation so that GSH can
acknowledge the gift. For more information, please email Karen Jupiter at
kjupiter@goodhousing.org or call (703)768-9404.
Wills/Bequests
What better way to create a living memorial of your life and continue to help
those in need than to name GSH as a beneficiary in your will? By designating
GSH (tax id# 23-7447962) as a recipient of your estate, your generosity will be able to help those
in need long after you have departed. If you are considering GSH as a
beneficiary for your will or bequest, please email Karen Jupiter at kjupiter@goodhousing.org
or call (703)768-9404.
The provision in your Will for making a gift to Good Shepherd
Housing and Family Services will depend upon the type of gift and your own
circumstances. Below you will find samples for different types of bequests.
