PLANNED AND ESTATE GIVING

A Gift in Your Will or Living Trust

A simple, flexible and versatile way to ensure we can continue our work for years to come is a gift in your will or living trust, also known as a charitable bequest.

By including a gift to The Center for Contemplative Research (CCR) in your will or living trust, you are offering the resources that will keep our retreat hermitages and scientific research sustainable for many years to come. Your gift also entitles your estate to an unlimited federal estate tax charitable deduction.

Use the following sample language to include a gift in your will to CCR:
“I give, devise, and bequeath, to The Center For Contemplative Research, a Colorado nonprofit corporation, (insert dollar amount, percentage of estate or exact description of property to be devised).”

OR FOR A RESTRICTED GIFT:
“I give, devise, and bequeath, to The Center For Contemplative Research, a Colorado nonprofit corporation, (insert dollar amount, percentage of estate or exact description of property to be devised) for the benefit of the (specific program) at The Center For Contemplative Research.”

We greatly appreciate your continuing support as a member of the global CCR community. Together, we will cultivate our expansive vision step by step, by tending to one another, tending to our minds, and tending to our world.

The Center for Contemplative Research is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in the United States. Your contribution to CCR is fully tax-deductible as provided by law.

Our Tax ID number is 85-1666977.
