An organization committed to the rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of horses in need.
A place of sanctuary and healing for previously abused, neglected, and abandoned horses.
A belief that all horses’ lives matter and that hope makes anything possible.
This is California Coastal Horse Rescue, and we invite you to
join us in sustaining this beautiful Legacy of Hope.
Deferred Giving Options
There are a number of planned (deferred) giving options, regardless of size, available to you as you consider joining the Legacy of Hope Society. These gifts, through the society, will serve to support the future needs of the horses of CCHR.
Bequests
Gifts by will may be for a specific dollar amount, a percentage of the total estate, or the residuum remaining after all debts, taxes, expenses, and other bequests have been paid. Specific bequests of property such as real estate may also be made.
Tax Deferred Retirement Plan
You may also name California Coastal Horse Rescue as a beneficiary in a tax-deferred retirement plan such as an IRA or 401(k) plan. The distribution from any of these plans would take place after your death and may be very tax-wise for you and your family.
Life Insurance
Policies that are no longer needed for family protection or business purposes make excellent charitable gifts, regardless of whether or not all of the premiums have been paid. When ownership of the policy is irrevocably assigned to California Coastal Horse Rescue, the cash value of the policy is a tax-deductible gift, as are all future premium payments. By establishing new life insurance policies, specifically for California Coastal Horse Rescue, you are able to make a substantial gift for a relatively modest annual outlay.
Current Gifts
The following gift arrangements serve to support CCHR today.
Cash
Gifts are designated as restricted or unrestricted. Unrestricted gifts enable us to respond flexibly and quickly to immediate needs and new opportunities. Restricted gifts will be used to support specific and designated projects.
Securities
Gifts of appreciated securities offer immediate benefits to CCHR and, in many cases, provide tax deductions for the donor. Capital gains taxes can be avoided, and often, the full market value of appreciated securities can be deducted if they have been held for more than twelve months.
Real Estate & Other Personal Property
Real property is simply real estate—a home, farm, or other land. Your home, whether a single-family home or condominium, has probably appreciated in value over the years so that its sale would result in a sizeable capital gains tax. By making a gift of property to CCHR you may be able to avoid capital gains taxes altogether. Gifts of tangible personal property, such as art, antiques, rare books, coins, stamps, jewelry, or other valuable objects, offer another way to give.
