Planned Giving: Ways to Give
Create a Lasting Legacy with Plumas Arts
By naming Plumas Arts as a beneficiary of your will, trust, retirement account, or other financial plans, you create a meaningful, lasting gift that ensures the arts continue to thrive in rural communities for generations to come. Legacy giving is a powerful way to align your values with long-term impact—supporting creativity, education, and cultural connection across Plumas County.
Will or Trust You can leave a legacy gift by including Plumas Arts in your will or living trust. Your attorney can help you add a simple amendment that designates:
“I give and bequeath to the Plumas County Arts Commission (Tax ID #: 94-2814290) the sum of __________ (or ___% of my estate, or a description of specific property) for its general purposes.”
IRA, Retirement Plans, or Life InsuranceDesignating Plumas Arts as a beneficiary of all or part of your retirement account or life insurance policy is a simple and impactful option—and it does not require changes to your will or trust. Just complete a beneficiary designation form through your plan administrator.
If you are 70½ or older, you may also make tax-free Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) directly from your IRA. This can satisfy required minimum distributions while advancing Plumas Arts’ mission—often with tax advantages.
Stocks, Bonds, Bank Accounts & Donor-Advised FundsYou can also support the future of the arts by naming Plumas Arts as a beneficiary of stocks, bonds, bank accounts, or donor-advised funds. Request a beneficiary designation form from your financial institution to get started.
Your legacy can keep creativity alive—on our stages, in our schools, and throughout our rural communities—for years to come.
