BEQUESTS

Naming the Keewaydin Foundation as the beneficiary of your will or trust is a simple way to leave a lasting legacy to your beloved camp. You may gift a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate.  We would like to recognize you for your generosity during your lifetime, so please notify us of your intention.

BENEFICIARY ARRANGEMENTS

Naming Keewaydin as the full or partial beneficiary of your life insurance policy or retirement accounts is a simple way to ensure support for Keewaydin into the future.  This approach also relieves your heirs of any income and estate tax due on retirement accounts.

CHARITABLE GIFT ANNUITY – Immediate or Deferred

In exchange for your irrevocable gift of cash, low-yield CDs, stocks, bonds or mutual funds, you will receive an income stream for life.  At the time of your death, Keewaydin receives the interest income from the remainder of your gift.  If desired, you can postpone when your income stream starts with a deferred charitable gift annuity. Interest rates are established by the American Council on Gift Annuities and vary from 4.4% to 9% depending on the age of the annuitants. Annuities can be issued for one or two people.
