Gifts Anyone Can Afford

Gifts by Will or Living Trust Give to the Natural Resources Defense Council without affecting your cash flow during your lifetime.
Gifts of Retirement Plans Your retirement plan may be worth more when donated to NRDC than to your heirs.
Gifts of Appreciated Securities The IRS allows you one of its most significant tax breaks for gifts of appreciated securities. Here's information on how to transfer these assets to NRDC.
Gifts of Life Insurance Create a significant endowment for NRDC without dipping into your capital assets.

Gifts That Pay You Income

Charitable Gift Annuity Receive a fixed payout and significant tax benefits.
Deferred Gift Annuity Build retirement earnings by deferring the onset of annuity payments (recommended for younger donors).
Pooled Income Fund We offer a life-income gift that works like a charitable mutual fund. You can give NRDC cash or securities, receive an income tax deduction and avoid capital gains tax on the transfer, secure lifetime income, and deliver significant support to us.
Charitable Remainder Annuity Trusts Combine a charitable gift with a predictable fixed-income payout by placing your donation into an individually managed trust.
Charitable Remainder Unitrusts Choose from several options that best meet your personal financial situation.
