How It Works

  1. You can provide now for a significant future gift by naming Forest Home as beneficiary of an insurance policy, or you can give a new or existing life insurance policy
  2. If you contribute a new or existing life insurance policy, you can receive a charitable tax deduction
  3. Forest Home will either cash in the policy, or more likely, when the policy matures, the benefits will pass to Forest Home tax-free

Benefits

  • You can make a significant gift in the future with less expense today
  • You can designate Forest Home as a beneficiary with little paperwork and change your mind at any time
  • You can give a new or existing life insurance policy and receive an income tax deduction
  • You can receive additional tax deductions by making annual gifts so we can pay the policy premiums
  • You could save taxes in the future by removing the insurance from your gross taxable estate
  • You can experience the joy of making it possible for children, youth and families to experience the life-changing power of the Gospel at Forest Home for generations to come

A Life Insurance Gift May Be For You If:

  • You are a younger donor who wants to make a significant gift in the future
  • You have a life insurance policy that is no longer needed for dependent family

More Information

  • For you to receive a charitable tax deduction for a life insurance policy, Forest Home has to be the irrevocable owner of the policy and not just its beneficiary
  • A gift of a life insurance policy with a loan still outstanding will create taxable income for you in the amount of the loan balance
