Your legacy of compassion toward animals can live on forever. Please consider supporting the Pennsylvania SPCA with a planned gift.

GIFTS THROUGH WILLS AND TRUSTS

Ways to remember the Pennsylvania SPCA in your will:

  • Leave a specific dollar amount
  • Designate that a percentage of your estate be given through your will or living trust.
  • Give only the remainder, or residue, of your estate
  • Provide for a gift of specific property-real estate, stocks or other items.

An individual may designate that a bequest be used for the general purposes of the Pennsylvania SPCA, or go to support a specific program or fund.

Here is some suggested language to include in a will: “I bequeath to The Pennsylvania SPCA, a non-profit corporation headquartered at 350 E. Erie Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19134, the sum of $___, to be used for its general mission (or for a specific program or purpose as indicated).”

Federal Tax ID #23-1352269

For more information please contact Rachel McCrystal at 215.426.6304 ext. 217 or by email at rmccrystal@pspca.org.

We encourage you to consult with your legal and financial advisors when considering a planned gift.

GIFTS OF LIFE INSURANCE

Beneficiary designation: It is relatively simple to make a change to the beneficiary/beneficiaries of your insurance policy without changing your will or other aspects of your estate plan. Just ask your insurance company for a form that will allow you to make the Pennsylvania SPCA a beneficiary of your insurance policy.

Gift of a paid-up policy: Do you have a policy that has outlived its intended purpose? The ownership of such policies can be transferred to the Pennsylvania SPCA. You receive an immediate income tax deduction for the gift of the policy up to the cash basis, or what you paid for it.
