Planned Giving

We invite you to look forward and consider future generations. By investing in your legacy at NICWA, you can make a lasting impact on those we serve for years to come.

Give from your IRA

If you are 70 ½ or older, please consider using your Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), also known as IRA Charitable Rollovers, to make a gift to NICWA. This simple, tax-smart step allows you to potentially reduce your taxable income while having a substantial impact on helping us keep Native children and their families together whenever possible.

Make a Bequest

We invite you to consider making a bequest—a gift through your will or trust—to help further NICWA’s mission. With the help of your trusted advisor, this will provide a legacy that reaches future generations of Native families.

Give from a Donor-Advised Fund

A donor-advised fund (DAF) account is tailored to support the charitable causes you care about. You can make one-time gifts or set up recurring monthly donations to NICWA, supporting one or multiple charities—all through a single DAF. For more information on how to establish a DAF, contact your fund representative or financial advisor.

When you give a gift of any size, NICWA and the communities we serve are deeply grateful.

NICWA is here to support you and your trusted advisors—whether it’s your lawyer, accountant, or financial planner—in exploring meaningful ways to give. Options such as allocating a portion of your retirement or life insurance policy, creating a DAF, or establishing a Charitable Gift Annuity can increase your financial security while ensuring the work of NICWA continues for future generations of Native children. Let’s work together to find the best approach for you.
