Legacy gifts are special gifts from one generation to another. By donating a portion of your estate to Grassroots International, you are building a legacy of global justice for you and for your family.

Types of legacy gifts

A legacy gift can be transferred to Grassroots International at any time during your life or at the time of your death. The appreciated capital generally derives from one of the following sources: life insurance, stock, mutual funds, real estate, property or IRA.

To discuss the relative benefits of donating one or more of these fund sources to Grassroots International and the best time to make such a donation please contact Daniel Moss at Grassroots by phone at 617.524.1400 ext. 20 or email him.
