There are many ways to support Orphan Kitten Club when planning your estate:

  • Charitable Gift Annuity: Establish a charitable gift annuity for Orphan Kitten Club by donating cash or appreciated securities.
  • Life Insurance/Retirement Account: Designate Orphan Kitten Club as the beneficiary of a paid life insurance policy or a retirement account.
  • Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA: If you’re over 70½, consider making tax-advantaged charitable donations directly from your IRA to Orphan Kitten Club. These may count towards your required minimum distributions (RMDs). Consult your tax advisor for details.
  • Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT): Name Orphan Kitten Club as the beneficiary of a charitable remainder trust.
