Planned Giving
Every day people are helped and lives are enriched by the work of VEPC. Financial assistance is essential to support and sustain this work.
Many people generously give their money, time and energy to VEPC and are unaware that by leaving a gift in their will or estate plan, they can continue to help people in need. Choosing to leave a gift from the heart brings meaning, dignity and purpose to a life well lived. Surprisingly, a gift can also be a very practical addition to a financial or estate plan when tax issues are taken into consideration.
Any individual can plan a legacy gift, regardless of current assets or income. It provides an opportunity for individuals and families to support a cause they believe in, often in ways they might not be able to accomplish during their lives. The story of Lizzie and David Chambers is a beautiful illustration of what a bequest can accomplish.
If you would like to discuss leaving a legacy gift, contact Barb at (250) 475-6677 or at bgilmore@vepc.bc.ca
