Become A Member of The Animal Haven Legacy Society

The ways to make a legacy gift include:

• making a bequest to The Animal Haven in your will or trust by using language such as the following:

  I give, devise, and bequeath to The Animal Haven, Inc., Tax ID #06-0735382, a not-for-profit Connecticut corporation, located in North Haven, CT, the sum of $___ dollars (OR, ___percent of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate), for its general purposes to be used and/or disposed of as The Animal Haven, Inc. may in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

• transferring a bank or investment account to The Animal Haven by using the “payable on death” or “transfer on death” designation

• making The Animal Haven a beneficiary of:

• • a life insurance policy

• • your retirement account (because charities do not pay income tax, the full amount of your retirement account will directly benefit The Animal Haven)

• • a charitable gift annuity (you receive a stream of income during your life and The Animal Haven receives the balance of the funds upon your death)

• setting up an individually-named designated fund at The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven or other foundation to provide an annual revenue stream to The Animal Haven in perpetuity

Whatever you decide, we are grateful for your interest in supporting The Animal Haven!
