The Montana Masons Foundation is funded by donations, which promote
reading, interest in science, musical education, and much more.
Your donation can help today with a cash or check, or you can support the
Foundation through charitable planned giving.
Planned Giving
Several options are available to support the Montana Masonic Foundation.
• Make a transfer from your IRA directly to the foundation through
a Qualifi ed Charitable Distribution. This is a great way to reduce
potential income taxes while making a diff erence for Montana
kids.
• Create a Charitable Lead Trust or Charitable Remainder Trust,
both of which provide income tax and estate tax benefi ts.
• Make an outright bequest in your will. All that is required in
your will is a designated charity and the amount you wish to
contribute.
• Make the foundation a benefi ciary of your IRA or retirement
plan. This can provide double tax savings.
• Name the foundation as your insurance benefi ciary.
