Posthumous Gift Seen
As Aid to Charities
Posthumous gifts written into
wills can be a major source of in-
come for charities and foundations.
Unfortunately, lack of legal ex-
pertise keeps many fundraisers
from tapping into this bountiful
resource.
Four seminars held throughout
Texas will help fill these gaps in
knowledge The seminars, spon-
sored by the Texas Department on
Aging, should be of special interest
to fundraisers, bankers, investment
planners or anyone who wants to
help their senior senior center
foundation board or other
organization secure gifts and
bequests written into the wills of
donors. Information will also be
available on how to obtain guidance
in setting up wills for maximum Lax
advantage to the beneficiaries and
to better understand our system of
wills and estate taxation.
All four of the seminars, which
will be identical in content, will be
coordinated by Cathy Wilson, one of
the state’s foremost experts in
estate and endowment planning.
The seminar for our area is Thur-
sday, Aug. 28, 10-2 p.m. at the
Ramada Inn, 3400 Highway 59,
Nacogdoches, Tx. For registration
information, contact Martha Jones
(409) 384-5704
The registration fee for all dates
and locations is $10 per
organization. No per-person fee will
be charged
