Bequests or Planned Giving

A planned gift allows a donor to contribute to the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America (MSAA) over a period of years or as part of an estate plan. Properly designed, it can generate a charitable income tax deduction. It can be designated for a specific purpose or provide unrestricted support for MSAA's mission to enrich the quality of life for individuals with multiple sclerosis. Gifts may be made in the form of trusts, bequests, or endowments. Many other planned giving vehicles can be adapted to meet the needs of the individual donor.

Through a planned gift, donors can give to MSAA, while retaining their income. MSAA staff can help develop strategies that are advantageous to both donors and MSAA.
