Planned Giving refers to charitable gifts that are usually deferred until some future time.  Planned charitable gifts are beneficial and should be considered when financial or estate planning is considered.  Planned Gifts have lasting value ... to Oakland Family Services by helping to fund our programs far into the future... and to donors and their loved ones through valuable tax benefits and in many cases, income for life.

• Enjoy a significant tax deduction
• Increase current income
• Provide additional retirement income
• Avoid capital gains tax
• Pass assets to family at a reduced tax cost
• Make significant donations to charity

OUR COMMITMENT is to create an organization with the financial strength to last forever.  It is more challenging now than ever before to keep our commitment and achieve this goal.

WE ASK that you please consider making a commitment to help secure the future of Oakland Family Services.  These pages describe various ways of making charitable planned gifts to the Oakland Family Services Endowment Fund or for the general charitable purposes of our organization. 

TOGETHER we can provide what no one person or family can do alone -- the knowledge that someone will always be there, that someone will care for a lifetime.

THANK YOU for your interest and support.
