Planned giving means preparing a future gift to the Land Trust, ensuring generations to come enjoy the same beautiful landscapes we have today. This type of giving is a meaningful way to leave a legacy of care for future generations.
A bequest can be made by naming the Crested Butte Land Trust as a charitable beneficiary either in your existing will (by adding an update, called a codicil) or when establishing a new will. Suggested Language: “I give, devise and bequeath to the Crested Butte Land Trust, of Crested Butte, Colorado, assets having a value equal to __% of my gross estate to be used for its general charitable purposes.”
You can also name the Crested Butte Land Trust as a beneficiary of your retirement plan. IRA’s, 401k’s, 403b’s are popular and effective saving vehicles. If you name the Land Trust as a beneficiary in the event of premature death, none of the assets are subject to tax.
