Leave your legacy
Making a legacy gift to VCLF ensures that you’ll be a part of our work forever. Here’s how you can help.
Make a legacy investment
Our version of a charitable gift annuity. You'll receive immediate tax benefits and annual interest payments for life, while the capital you've gifted to the Loan Fund is loaned out to create opportunities throughout Vermont. At the end of your life, your legacy investment will become part of our Permanent Capital Fund, to be loaned and re-loaned in perpetuity.
Donate your VCLF investment
Some VCLF investors include us in their philanthropy by donating their investment (or a portion thereof) at maturity. Maybe their financial position has changed since they made their investment and they're not relying those funds anymore. Maybe they've even forgotten about it
over time. Or maybe they're just inspired by VCLF's latest project! Similarly, many VCLF investors choose to include us in their legacy philanthropy by donating their investment (or a portion thereof) at the end of their lives.
Include VCLF as a beneficiary of your will or life insurance policy
Your end-of-life charitable gift creates tax benefits for your estate and leaves a VCLF legacy that will be creating opportunities for Vermonters far into the future.
