LEGACY SOCIETY

Your generosity will make a lasting impact for years to come.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a member of the Neighborhood Legacy Society. Giving is not just about the present, it’s also about the future. We believe that giving can impact generations beyond ours. This new and exciting opportunity provides a way for us to thank and forever recognize you as a neighbor who desires to create a lasting impact and leave a legacy of giving.

Sample Gift Language

Planning for the future and creating the legacy you wish to leave is one of the most effective ways to ensure a lasting impact. Making a planned gift in your will or trust can guarantee that your legacy endures. Your gift may take many different forms, but the most common include a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or the remainder after all other provisions are specified. In addition, planned gifts can be made by naming a charity as a beneficiary of a retirement account or life insurance policy.

Our federal tax ID number is: 58-1792414

Below is suggested language to use when drafting your planned gift.

Sample Language for Beneficiary Designations

Simply name Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries, Inc., a Georgia nonprofit corporation, on any beneficiary designation form for retirement accounts, life insurance policies, or other assets that pass by naming beneficiaries directly.

Sample Language for Wills and Trusts

For an unrestricted gift that allows Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries to determine how to use the funds based on the most pressing needs, use the following language for your will and/or trust:

To designate your provision for a particular purpose:

"I give to Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries, Inc., a Georgia nonprofit corporation, currently located in Norcross, GA, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property]. This gift should be used for (state purpose) if and so long as Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries, Inc determines that the need exists. If Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries, Inc shall determine at the outset or at a later time that the need does not exist, or no longer exists, or for some reason it is not possible (or prudent) to administer my gift as originally intended, then Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries, Inc. may, in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, direct the use of my bequest for a purpose related as closely as possible to that stated above."

For additional questions regarding planned gifts, please contact Ryan Jones, Director of Community Development, at ryan@ourncm.org.
