We believe…

…in the enduring power of Legacy Giving at The Living Room. Our Legacy Giving Program offers you the opportunity to leave a lasting impact. Through Legacy Giving, you can ensure that our shared values, passions and dreams continue to shape The Living Room for future generations.

Legacy Giving, also known as estate or planned giving, enables you to donate part of your estate. It is the easiest planned gift you can make. It costs nothing during your lifetime. By including The Living Room in your planned giving, you are leaving a legacy that ensures a brighter future for Sonoma County women and children who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

Gifts to The Living Room may be made over the course of one’s lifetime in the form of a bequest through your will or trust. These gifts are flexible and can include a specific dollar amount, a part of your estate, or a portion of what remains.

Planned gifts typically hold financial benefits and tax advantages for the donor. Depending upon your circumstances, you may be able to reduce estate taxes or receive other financial incentives by making a Legacy gift. You are never too young or too old to consider leaving a legacy!

The Living Room has introduced Legacy Giving as a new funding opportunity for donors to make planned gifts that will secure our future, and strengthen the foundation for our programs in perpetuity by providing capital for tomorrow’s programs.
