Leave A Legacy

Make a Big Impact With a Future Gift


When you include NSPR in your estate plan, your generosity helps ensure we remain a trusted and indispensable source of information, music and entertainment. Your legacy gift helps NSPR impact our communities well into the future.

With as little as one sentence, you can make a gift in your will or trust that significantly impacts the efforts of NSPR. Whether you choose to give a set amount or a percentage of your estate, your support ensures we are able to continue our work for years to come.
Naming NSPR as a beneficiary of one of your assets, such as your retirement plan or life insurance policy, is a convenient way to ensure we can continue to serve our audience. All it takes are a few minutes and a simple form.
If you are 70½ years old or older, you can take advantage of a simple way to give to NSPR and receive tax benefits in return. You can give up to $100,000 from your IRA directly to a qualified charity without having to pay income taxes on the money.
Feel confident that you have dependable income in your retirement years with a charitable gift annuity. This gift can provide you with regular payments and provide NSPR with the resources to support the future of public radio. You can also qualify for a variety of tax benefits, including a federal income tax charitable deduction when you itemize.
This type of trust provides you or other named individuals income each year from assets you give to the trust you create. At the end of the trust term, the balance in the trust goes to NSPR.
When you give NSPR-appreciated property you have held longer than one year, you qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction. This eliminates capital gains tax. And you no longer have to deal with that property's maintenance costs, property taxes or insurance.
A donor-advised fund, which is like a charitable savings account, gives you the flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is granted to NSPR and other qualified charities.
