Leave a Legacy to Jazz: Your Future and SFJAZZ’ Future

There are many different ways to support SFJAZZ, and planned giving is one way in helping to shape and develop the future of jazz. Planned giving is a valuable opportunity for individuals to tailor special gift plans that can benefit SFJAZZ, now and in the future, and provide the individual with important reductions in current personal income taxes and estate taxes, while maintaining or even increasing income from the donated assets.

The rewards will be more than the potential tax savings. You can help to perpetuate the exceptional music and education programs for years to come. If you have already included SFJAZZ in your estate plans, please let us know by calling or emailing us. We would like to assist you in making certain your intentions are carried out. Consider some of the following ways to support the future of jazz:

Wills and Bequests
Gifts of Appreciated Stock
Charitable Gift Annuities
Gifts of Retirement Assets
Charitable Lead Trusts
Gifts of Life Insurance
Gifts of Real Estate

Gift of Securities

Making a gift of appreciated securities is an excellent way to give to SFJAZZ. By giving securities directly to SFJAZZ, you may avoid capital gains taxes on the stock's increased value, and your charitable tax deduction may equal the full value of the securities at the time of donation - a double tax benefit.
For your convenience, SFJAZZ has accounts with several prominent brokerage houses.
