Planned Giving

Planned giving is making the decision today to provide for the COC's future.

From creating an in-life trust to including the COC in your will—a planned gift allows you to make a significant statement of support, often unlocking greater income while securing significant tax benefits.

These can include gifts of bequests, retirement funds, stocks and securities, gifts-in-kind, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, gifts of residual interest and life insurance.

The Encore Legacy

Donors who contribute through a planned gift or make a provision for the COC in their estate plans become members of the Encore Legacy. 

Membership includes lifetime acknowledgement in COC publications, as well as access to special events exclusively tailored to legacy supporters.

Our deepest gratitude to our current Encore Legacy members.

Legacy giving can be simple, personal, and flexible.

We'd love to help you explore what feels right for your goals and your connection to the COC.​

Let’s talk over coffee. Get in touch today with David Nimmo, Senior Major Gift and Legacy Officer, to find out how planned giving today can make a meaningful impact tomorrow.
