Planned Giving

You have the opportunity to ensure that innovative and cutting-edge research will continue as long as it takes to end the AIDS crisis. By donating to AIDS Research Alliance through your planned giving, you can make a significant future gift that won’t affect your finances today.

Both state and federal law offer several tax advantages for donors, including ways to avoid capital gains tax. With careful planning, your estate can provide security for your family and loved ones, minimize taxes and estate costs, and ensure your future participation in the fight to end AIDS.

Of course, when considering planned giving options, it is important to have the assistance of legal counsel and financial advisors who are able to assess individual estate planning objectives and identify potentially adverse tax consequences. We can recommend experts who can help you with your estate plan.
