planned giving
We hope you'll consider including a gift to the LRAEF in your will or living trust. Called a charitable bequest, this type of gift offers these main benefits:
• Simplicity. Just a few sentences in your will or trust are all that is needed. The official bequest language for the Louisiana Restaurant Association Education Foundation is: "I, [name], of [city, state, ZIP], give, devise and bequeath to Louisiana Restaurant Association Education Foundation [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted use and purpose."
• Flexibility. Because you are not actually making a gift until after your lifetime, you can change your mind at any time.
• Versatility. You can structure the bequest to leave a specific item or amount of money, make the gift contingent on certain events, or leave a percentage of your estate to us.
• Tax Relief. If your estate is subject to estate tax, your gift is entitled to an estate tax charitable deduction for the gift's full value.
For more information, please contact the LRAEF at (504) 454-2277, or consult your personal financial planning professional.
