There are many ways to make a significant gift to help further the Marine Corps Association Foundation's mission. You may make a bequest or gift through your estate by including a provision in your will or living trust or by naming the Marine Corps Association Foundation as a beneficiary of your retirement plan or life insurance policy. The amount left to the Marine Corps Association Foundation, or any charity, can be given as a specific dollar amount or as a percentage of the assets to be given.
To help you get started on your plans and legacy, you can use FreeWill, an online tool that guides you through the process of creating your will or trust. It’s easy to use, accessible online, and can be completed in 20 minutes. You can use this resource on its own, or use it to document your wishes before finalizing your plans with an attorney.
Have you already included a gift in your will or trust? Please fill out this form to let us know! We would love to thank you for your generosity.
Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life-insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? If so, these are called non-probate assets and you must plan your beneficiaries for them separately. Designating us as a beneficiary of one or more of these assets is another way to build your legacy with the Marine Corps Association Foundation. FreeWill can also help you plan for all of these assets.
Once you notify us of your intent to provide for the Marine Corps Association Foundation in your estate plan, you will become a member of the Samuel Nicholas Society. We honor all requests for anonymity regarding your estate gift.
