Legacy & Planned Gifts

Plan for a future gift by including Carlsbad Educational Foundation in your will or living trust. Charitable bequests offer many benefits, including simplicity, flexibility, and tax relief.

Indicate a specific amount or a percentage of the balance remaining in your estate or trust to benefit the greatest need of Carlsbad students or to fund a specific purpose.

Assets remain in your control during your lifetime and can be modified to address changing circumstances. Under current tax law, there is no upper limit on the estate tax deduction for your charitable bequests.

Please let us know if you have included Carlsbad Educational Foundation in your estate plan or if you are considering doing so. We would love to hear from you!

Donor Advised Funds

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is like a savings account for your charitable donations. It’s easy to set up and helps distribute your income from appreciated stock or assets to Carlsbad Educational Foundation each year. Receive an immediate tax deduction when you transfer funds to your DAF. Set up this personal charitable giving account with your financial advisor or through a community foundation.

Stock Gifts

Boost your charitable contribution to Carlsbad students by donating shares of stock. When you donate appreciated stock, you avoid capital gains tax while receiving an income tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock contributed.
