Planned giving
Leave a legacy of love
A planned gift to Harley’s Hope Foundation can help protect the bond between people and their companion animals for years to come. By including Harley’s Hope in your estate plans, you can help ensure that pets receive the veterinary care, food, temporary shelter, transportation, and other assistance they need when their families are experiencing financial hardship, illness, or crisis.
Your legacy gift can extend the compassion you have for animals beyond your lifetime—or allow you to see the difference your generosity makes today. Gifts of any size can help sustain Harley’s Hope programs and keep pets where they belong: with the people who love them.
Include Harley’s Hope in your will or trust
A charitable bequest is one of the most flexible ways to support Harley’s Hope. You remain in control of your assets during your lifetime and may update your plans if your circumstances change.
Your attorney can help you structure a gift that reflects your wishes. Common options include:
Leaving a specific dollar amount or asset
Designating a percentage of your estate
Giving the remainder of your estate after gifts to family members and other beneficiaries have been fulfilled
Directing your gift toward Harley’s Hope’s overall mission or a particular program that matters to you
When preparing or updating your will or living trust, ask your attorney to identify the organization as:
Harley’s Hope Foundation
P.O. Box 88146
Colorado Springs, CO 80908
Federal Tax ID: 27-3127204
Other ways to leave a legacy
A planned gift does not have to be made through a will. Depending on your goals and financial circumstances, you may also support Harley’s Hope through:
An outright gift of cash
A beneficiary designation on a life insurance policy
A gift of securities
Personal property
Other charitable giving arrangements recommended by your financial or legal advisor
Some gifts may provide financial or tax-planning benefits, but those benefits depend on your individual circumstances. Speak with a qualified attorney, tax professional, or financial advisor before making a planned gift.
Already included Harley’s Hope in your plans?
When you let us know that Harley’s Hope is part of your estate or legacy plans, you give us the opportunity to thank you and better understand how you would like your gift to be used.
You may also choose to be recognized for your generosity. Sharing your commitment can encourage other compassionate pet advocates to consider leaving their own legacy. Recognition is always optional, and your wishes will be respected.
Help keep pets and people together
A legacy gift is more than a financial contribution. It is a lasting expression of compassion for animals and for the people whose lives are made better by their companionship.
