Gifts to Kingsbury are a wonderful way to memorialize a special loved one or to mark a milestone in a loved one's life. Such gifts are fully tax-deductible, and the person or family in whose memory or honor the gift is made will receive a special card acknowledging the occasion and noting your gift.

Planned Giving

Planned giving is not just for the wealthy or for those who have large investment portfolios. Through thoughtful will and trust arrangements, you can benefit those who mean the most to you, including your favorite charitable causes. In addition to disbursing money, stocks, and bonds in your estate, you can make arrangements for equity in your home, life insurance, deferred employee benefits, and real estate investments.

If you would like to include Kingsbury in your estate plans, your attorney or financial planner can help you make the arrangements. For more information on planned giving at Kingsbury, please contact Elizabeth Conway at 202-545-24135 or .
