Ways to Create an Endowment
Learn more about three easy ways to include CJP in your estate plans.
Outright Gift or Multi-Year Pledge
You may fund your endowment through an outright gift or a multi-year pledge. This will allow your endowment to begin supporting our community during your lifetime.
Bequest
A bequest through your will, trust or retirement account is an easy way to create an endowment. We'll work with you and your advisor to craft language that clearly reflects your intentions. Click here to confidentially notify the Gift Planning team that CJP has been included in your estate plans.
Life Insurance
You may purchase a life insurance policy, for which CJP would serve as both owner and beneficiary. After your passing, CJP will redeem the policy and the proceeds will support CJP's endowment.
Life Income Gift
A Charitable Gift Annuity or a Charitable Remainder Trust can provide an immediate tax deduction and lifetime income. After the death of the last beneficiary, the remainder becomes part of an endowment fund to be used in accordance with your wishes.
