Name us in your will or trust

Naming Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation in your will or revocable trust is a meaningful way to support pediatric patients and their families, with no financial impact during your lifetime. By leaving a specific amount or percentage of your estate, you can care for your loved ones while also creating a lasting legacy that benefits critcally ill or injured children.

Give a Life Income Gift

Through life income gifts—like charitable gift annuities or charitable remainder trusts—you can support Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation while securing income for yourself or someone you care about.

In addition to providing lifetime payments, these gifts may offer immediate tax advantages and can help minimize capital gains taxes when appreciated assets are used.

 

Tax Savvy Ways to Give

 

IRA Charitable Distribution

Individuals age 70½ and older can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from their retirement plan or IRA to Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation, while potentially lowering their tax burden. At age 73 or older, a QCD can also fulfill your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).

Gifts of Stock

When you donate appreciated stock directly, you can avoid paying the capital gains tax you would incur if you sold the stock first and then donated it. This option can increase the value of your contribution by up to 20%.

 

Donor Advised Funds

Directing grants from your donor-advised fund (DAF) allows you to support causes you care about during your lifetime—and gives you the chance to involve your children in continuing your legacy. Naming Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation as a beneficiary of your DAF can help your impact last even longer.

Donate Cryptocurrency

Donating Cryptocurrency is an easy, tax efficient way to support Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation. The IRS treats crypto similar to property, so when you donate cryptocurrency directly, you may be able to deduct the full fair market value of your gift and avoid capital gains taxes.
