Charitable Bequest

A charitable bequest is established through a will, living trust, or codicil and is transferred to the charitable organization upon the donor’s passing.  

​

Benefits of a Charitable Bequest 

  • Flexible 

  • Strategic 

  • Tax Efficient  ​​

When making a bequest through a will or codicil, provide the recommended language below to your attorney: I give, devise, and bequeath to Commonwealth Catholic Charities Foundation (Tax ID# 52-2374004 ), 1601 Rolling Hills Drive, Richmond, VA 23229 for (general purposes or specific program/service) the amount of (insert specific amount, residual or percentage of estate).

Designate CCC as beneficiary

By including CCC as a beneficiary of retirement assets like an IRA, 401(k), 4013(b), pension, or other tax-deferred plan, a donor can make a lasting impact while offsetting possible estate taxes for their heirs.  ​​

In order to do this, please provide the investment institution with Commonwealth Catholic Charities’ name and Tax ID number: - Commonwealth Catholic Charities Foundation - Tax ID# 52-2374004

Transfer on Death (TOD)

​Establish a Transfer on Death (TOD) or Payable on Death (POD) provision for investment assets, savings & checking accounts, money market accounts, and CDs to bypass probate and give directly to CCC. 

Begin the conversation with us or to a legal or financial advisor.

​We encourage you to seek legal and/or tax advice when establishing a planned gift. We are available to begin the conversation by helping you determine which gift option may be best for you and your family.

 

To discuss making a gift for a designated purpose please contact Kathleen McCormac at kathleen.mccormac@cccofva.org​
