Name Ashokan as Your Beneficiary

After planning for your loved ones, you can designate the Ashokan Center as the beneficiary of your bank or brokerage account, retirement plan or life insurance policy. Ask your financial institution about setting up a Transfer on Death (TOD) account. You’ll retain complete control of the account during your lifetime.

Or, if you have an insurance policy that you no longer need, you can donate the existing cash value to Ashokan right now. Consult with your insurance company about making this gift. They will provide you with the actual value, which may be considered a deductible charitable gift.

You can take care of nature and your heirs by making the Ashokan Center a full or partial beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k) or other qualified retirement plan. Ask your financial advisor about tax benefits.
