Jawonio 21st Century Legacy Society
Legacy gifts provide the foundation for our work at Jawonio. These gifts allow you to take care of your family, provide for gifts to loved ones and include a charitable gift for Jawonio.
Are We Part of Your Legacy?
From transforming our campus and creating naming opportunities, to establishing new programs or enhancing existing services, planned gifts from the 21st Century Legacy Society will make an incredible difference across Jawonio.
LEGACY SOCIETY
As a member of The Jawonio 21st Century Legacy Society, you leave a legacy gift knowing that your generosity is helping to ensure bright futures for children and adults with special needs for generations to come.
In honor of their philanthropy and leadership, loyal Jawonio donors are honored through our 21st Century Legacy Society which celebrates those who help provide for the future of Jawonio with a gift through a will or estate plan.
ESTATE PLANNING
Estate planning is the process of caring for yourself and your assets while you are living, and planning for the orderly transfer of assets to other persons and organizations– both during your life and afterwards.
We can help you find the best gift options, and perhaps help you to make a larger gift than you thought possible. For information on gift strategies that can help you support the Jawonio and provide significant benefits to you and your family, contact:

Bequests
Bequests are one of the most common (and most simple) ways to leave a legacy gift. Here are ways you can leave a bequest to Jawonio:
Specific Bequest
Designate amount of money or specific asset (property, securities, etc.) you wish to donate.
Percentage Bequest
Residuary Bequest
Contingent Bequest
Sample bequest language:
Charitable Lead Trusts
Gifts of Life Insurance
Another simple way to leave a legacy of safe water is to name Jawonio as a beneficiary of any individual or group life insurance policy. You will get an estate tax deduction for insurance proceeds that go to Jawonio upon your death.
