Tip of the Day

The balance remaining in your retirement plan after your death is subject not only to federal estate tax, but also to income tax — and, if you name a grandchild as beneficiary, to the generation-skipping tax. The result can be that only 20 to 25 cents on the dollar may be left for your family.

Planned Giving: Join the Legacy Circle

Planned Giving to KCET

Planned gifts provide the resources that create programming and community outreach opportunities and preserve KCET and KCET Desert Cities' future.

We at KCET and KCET Desert Cities are appreciative of your support so we hope this easy-to-understand website will help to inform you about creative giving strategies that enhance you and your family’s well being, as well as KCET and KCET Desert Cities'.

Did You Know

You don't have to use cash to make your gift - donate appreciated securities instead. The deduction is the same as for a cash gift, and you pay no capital gains tax on the transfer.

Give an asset that may help us more than it's helping you - such as a life insurance policy whose coverage your family no longer needs, or real estate like a second home or a parcel of undeveloped land, or even a collection of books or artwork that you no longer have room to display.

You can make a gift that costs you nothing during your lifetime - name KCET and KCET Desert Cities as a beneficiary of your will or revocable trust, or of your retirement plan.

You can make KCET and KCET Desert Cities a partner in your giving - you can deed us your home but continue to live there or you can sell us property at a charitable discount.
