Leave a Legacy of
FREEDOM
With God’s power working in us, he can do much, much more than anything we can ask or think of.
EPHESIANS 3:20 ESV
We hope you’ll consider a Legacy Gift.
Did you know that there are ways to continue to serve God and others after your lifetime through a Legacy Gift? More and more of our dedicated supporters are choosing to go this route by working directly with us to include AIM in their Will. Whether choosing a specific amount or a percentage of their assets, these gifts are invaluable to our mission moving forward! Oftentimes, we are named as beneficiaries of an asset account or donor-advised fund. When you make these arrangements during your lifetime, you are ensuring that your values will be represented past this earthly life.
If AIM is one of your favorite charities, your Legacy Gift will reflect how very much you respect our ministry. In fact, this gift could be your largest-ever contribution to the fight to end trafficking!
What’s Next?
Consider how you would like to be remembered through your legacy. What’s important to you in your life? How would you like your Will to reflect your interests and values? Contact your financial advisor or lawyer to start preparing your Will, or to add a simple amendment to your existing Will. In all cases, consult with a qualified attorney who can review your goals in light of applicable federal and state laws and draft your Will to reflect your specific wishes. Professional advice will also help you maximize the tax advantages of your gift.
