Leading From The Heart...

Giving to a charitable cause matters. Giving from the heart, your heart, means more.

A "Planned Gift" is one that is planned by you for the future. You've thought about the need, the charity, those who will benefit. Now it's time to take action and plan for your gift, your future legacy, to actually happen.

Your planned gift will benefit others in the years ahead, can increase the value of your gift many-fold and you can potentially realize significant tax savings in your lifetime.

The Planned Giving Counsel of Simcoe County will help you contact the people at the charities you choose and provide you with information on financial planners, lawyers and insurance professionals, experienced in planned giving.

Your planned gifts will benefit others for years to come
