Gift Arrangements to Consider

Bequest

A bequest in your will or trust is an easy way to provide for families while also helping to secure Fisher House Foundation's future. You can either leave Fisher House Foundation a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate.

If using an attorney to create your will, please include Fisher House Foundation’s EIN (#11-3158401) and complete mailing address (12300 Twinbrook Parkway, Suite 410, Rockville, MD 20852) in your will.

If you elect to use FreeWill, this information will appear automatically when you make your selection.

Appreciated Securities

You can bequeath gifts of stock, mutual funds, IRAs, or cryptocurrency. If you would like to avoid capital gains tax on appreciated stock, mutual funds, or cryptocurrency today, speak to your financial advisor or accountant about donating these assets.

Beneficiary Designations

You can make Fisher House Foundation a beneficiary of assets that are typically not covered in your will, such as IRAs, 401(k)s, pensions, payable-on-death bank and brokerage accounts, and life insurance policies.

Use this simple online service through our partners at FreeWill to plan for these assets; name Fisher House Foundation as a beneficiary at no immediate cost; and receive instructions on setting beneficiary designations up with your broker.

For Consideration

Please understand that by documenting your bequest, you are in no way making your bequest binding or irrevocable. You can revise your estate plan if your circumstances change, although we do ask that you notify us as a courtesy if that happens.

The information on this website is not a substitute for professional financial advice. While we have done our best to ensure that the information provided is accurate and provides valuable information, professional advice can help you with your specific circumstances.
