Leave a Legacy of Protected Redwood Forests
Be a part of the Redwood Legacy Circle where we honor and recognize individuals who have included Save-the-Redwoods League in their estate plans. There are a variety of ways to make a lasting contribution to Save-the-Redwoods League to ensure the preservation of our treasured redwoods. Below is a summary of the ways you can make a financial commitment from your estate plans to preserve the redwood forests for future generations.

Bequests

Make a gift to support our future work by including Save-the- Redwoods League in your will or living trust which offers an estate tax charitable deduction. These gifts provide a critical base of reliable support for our programs. Learn More.

Stock Gifts

Gifts of appreciated securities - whether outright or to fund a deferred gift - may entitle the donor to a double tax benefit: the donor does not recognize capital gain on the transaction and may take a current income tax charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the asset (up to 30% of adjusted gross income, with a five-year carryover of any unused deduction).

Life Income Gifts

Life Insurance

Naming Save-the-Redwoods League in a life insurance policy that is no longer needed for family support or liquidity may be an excellent vehicle for a gift. Consult your tax advisor to see if this type of planning makes sense for you and your loved ones. Contact us for more information.
