Help fight hunger for generations to come ... leave a legacy
Fueled by the high cost of food and fuel and poor economic conditions, emergency food box distribution is on the rise. Last year, OFB distributed 897,000 emergency food boxes, an increase of 14 percent over the previous year.
After more than 30 years of fighting hunger, the battle is far from won. But while we work to meet increased daily needs, we're also planning for the future.
You can help. Leave a legacy and fight hunger for generations to come through a variety of options.
- Quasi-endowment fund.
Oregon Food Bank's Quasi-Endowment Fund provides the long-term
funding we need to fight hunger in the future.
- Legacy
Circle. Become a member of OFB's Legacy Circle. It's
OFB's way of showing you how much we appreciate your commitment
to fighting hunger. If you've planned a legacy gift to Oregon
Food Bank, please
tell us about your gift.
- Bequests. A gift in your will or trust may be the best way for you to help build OFB's quasi-endowment, because you won't give up funds you need now for living expenses. A bequest will perpetuate your annual support of OFB's mission.
- Retired? Consider a charitable gift annuity. It's a way to make a gift without sacrificing income. A fixed income that doesn't fluctuate with the stock market may help meet your need for a secure retirement.
- Planning for retirement within the next 10 to 15 years? Establish a charitable gift annuity now and defer your guaranteed payments until later years to supplement your retirement income.
- Experts frequently recommend charitable trusts in estate and financial planning for their income tax benefits and their flexibility in planning for retirement income.
- Gifts of securities and real estate offer income-tax benefits that can help you in your financial and tax planning.
