- Will or Living Trust
- Charitable Remainder Trust
- Charitable Gift Annuity
- Retirement Plan
- Life Insurance
- Real Estate or other assets

Memorials, Honorariums, and Individual Gifts
Making a gift in honor of someone or as a memorial to honor a loved one is a wonderful way to recognize a special person while also supporting Friends
Homes. Many times, residents or family members wish to direct memorial gifts to benefit Friends Homes. We are honored to receive gifts in memory of former
residents. Please contact us if you need language that could be included in an obituary.
One-time, individual charitable gifts to the Annual Giving Campaign or for any reason or occasion are also appreciated. No gift is too large or too small
to make a difference at Friends Homes.
Gifts Using the IRA Charitable Rollover
Legislation was signed that permanently extends the IRA Charitable Rollover. This provision allows those who are 70 ½ and older to donate as much as
$100,000 directly from an IRA to a charity. Please read document for more information.
