    Plan Your Legacy

    When you make a planned gift to Holt International, you can have a lasting legacy in the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children. Explore your options below.

    <strong>Create a legacy for children</strong>

    One of the most powerful ways you can help children in need is by including a gift to Holt International in your will or revocable living trust. While costing nothing to you today, your gift will continue Holt’s mission and create a lasting difference in the lives of children and families for generations to come.

    To help you start your legacy today, we offer FreeWill — a free, online tool that guides you through the process of creating your will in just 20 minutes. It’s free, no matter what, and can be used with an attorney to finalize your estate plans. 

    Write Your Will

    <strong>Give from your IRA</strong>

    Donors 70.5 and older with a traditional IRA are eligible to make a tax-free donation directly from their IRA to Holt International called a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). Generally speaking, these gifts are tax-free and can be a smarter way to help children and families through Holt this year.

    For those 72 and older, QCDs can count towards a required minimum distribution, also allowing you to use your IRA to help care for children in need.

    Using our online tool, you can give from your IRA today or learn more about the benefits of giving a Qualified Charitable Distribution.

    Make an IRA Distribution

    <strong>Donate stocks, mutual funds or other appreciated assets</strong>
