Discover simple ways to make a lasting impact
Bequests

The most common form of planned giving. You can include BTF in your will by naming us as a beneficiary of a fixed amount, a percentage, or a residual gift.

Beneficiary Designations

List BTF as a partial beneficiary on your retirement plans, life insurance policies, brokerage or bank accounts. A simple form can change a life.

Living Trusts & Other Vehicles

You can designate BTF within a living trust or explore more structured giving vehicles depending on your goals.

Endowments​

For donors wishing to create an enduring source of scholarships or educational funds, establishing a named endowment with BTF is a powerful way to give in perpetuity.

Rollover IRA

If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA to BTF today, supporting our mission while potentially lowering your taxable income.
