We’d all like to make the world a better place for those who may follow in our footsteps after we’re gone. We want to be remembered.

Making a planned gift to Ronald McDonald House Charities is a beautiful way to make a lasting difference in the lives of thousands of families with seriously ill children and help get needed dental and medical care to under-served children across South Central Wisconsin and Northern Illinois.

Gifts that are part of an estate plan are called “planned gifts.”  With some forethought and planning with your legal or tax advisor, you can arrange to leave a lasting legacy to RMHC-Madison in the form of a planned gift. These gifts benefit you and RMHC-Madison in number of ways. They:

- Ensure your support to RMHC-Madison in the future
- Provide you with protection from income tax and estate tax
- Provide you with an opportunity to increase your annual income

Most importantly, your legacy could help to ensure there will always be a home-away-from home for families when they’re far from home with a sick child as well as keep the Care Mobile on the road helping thousands of children in dire need of dental or medical care. 

There are many ways to include RMHC-Madison in your financial plans. As you consider your gift, we recommend that you consult with legal and financial advisors to ensure you are maximizing the value of your portfolio and realizing tax savings.
