More Ways to Give

Join us in creating a world of opportunity for youth! There are many different ways to support Y.O.U. and the youth and families we serve.

Y.O.U. Legacy Partners

Join us in building a legacy that will carry on through future generations.

We have established the Y.O.U. Legacy Partners to continue to provide a way for our most dedicated supporters to join us in lasting support for our youth.

  • Y.O.U. Legacy Partners

    A Foundation for the Future

    Sparked by a fundraising challenge from the Finnegan Family Foundation and with the support of other generous donors, Y.O.U. launched an endowment in 2016. This active endowment fund provides sustaining support so Y.O.U. can continue to serve future generations. A gift to the endowment ensures that Y.O.U. continues to expand opportunities and youth success. Planned gifts will be directed to the endowment unless otherwise instructed by donors.

    Create a Legacy that Best Supports YOU

    A planned gift allows for flexibility, provides an avenue to make a potentialy larger and more impactful gift, and leaves a legacy that contributes to long term success and sustainability of the mission of Y.O.U.

Legacy Gift Options

A planned gift can meet your financial interests, may reduce taxes, and can fulfill your desire to support Y.O.U.

  • BENEFICIARY: The simplest planned gift involves updating an existing retirement account (IRA or 401K) or life insurance policy to include Y.O.U. as a beneficiary. Naming Y.O.U. as a beneficiary in these instances allows your gift to be received in a timely manner, and often avoids probate.
  • BEQUEST: A bequest made through a will or trust is another simple way to leave a legacy.
