Planned Giving

Planned giving does not have to be complicated — and you do not have to be wealthy to give in meaningful ways that support women and communities around the world.

Quick Actions You Can Take Today

Name RSWR as a Beneficiary on Your IRA

Simply fill out a one-page form with your IRA plan administrator.
You do not need to change your Will or Trust.
RSWR will receive your gift tax-free, and it supports our mission for the long term.

Give through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

If you’re age 70½ or older, you can give up to $108,000 directly from your IRA to RSWR without paying income tax on the distribution.
A QCD counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) for the year.

Make a Gift through Your Estate

Bequests may be in the form of cash, securities, real estate, an insurance policy, or other property. You can leave a legacy by adding RSWR to your will or living trust. Contact RSWR staff for more information and sample language to include in your estate plans.
