Planned Giving Opportunities - Humane Society of Sedona

60 years strong.

The Humane Society of Sedona will celebrate our 60th Year Anniversary in 2026. We are grateful for the decades of sustaining and collaborative support from generous supporters who have made this milestone possible. There are many ways to help us continue our life-changing and life-saving work for the disowned and orphaned companion pets that are dependent on our care and compassion.

Estate Giving

· Let your financial advisor know that you would like to include us as a beneficiary in your trust or will. Charitable gifts to us will be excluded from your taxable estate.

Endowment Giving

· Your endowment gift leaves a legacy of love into perpetuity for the homeless animals and helps to fuel our mission long-term. Donations to endowment funds are tax deductible.

Individual Retirement Account Giving

· Contact your plan administrator to arrange giving to HSS through your IRA. At 70.5 years of age, you can give pre-tax gifts up to $105,000, and at age 73, these gifts can go towards satisfying your Required Minimum Distribution from your IRA account.

Life Insurance, Investment, and Retirement Account Giving

· Name HSS as a beneficiary to receive part or all of your retirement, life insurance, and investment accounts.

Appreciated Asset and Stock Giving

· By donating stock that has appreciated for more than a year you have the potential for a double tax benefit— avoiding capital gains taxes and a full fair market value tax deduction.

Donor Advised Fund Giving

· Your contributions to the fund are tax deductible and the account is managed by a sponsoring organization. You can set-up the Humane Society of Sedona as your charity to receive funds from the account as a one-time grant or recurring grants.

Naming Opportunities

· We have naming opportunities throughout the facility where you or a loved one can be honored or remembered. This is a wonderful way to express your and your family’s legacy.
