Planned gifts and life income plans allow friends of the Ohio Environmental Council to leave a legacy of a cleaner environment for future generations, while also meeting personal financial objectives.

The Ohio Environmental Council created the Legacy Club to recognize those that have generously chosen to support Ohio's environment by including a gift to the OEC in a will or by developing a life income gift, such as a charitable remainder trust.

Through the development of a life income strategy or by designating a gift to the OEC in your will or trust, you can be assured that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and also enjoy significant tax savings.

We hope you will consider leaving a legacy to the Ohio Environmental Council and your other favorite charities. We invite you to learn more about these planned gifts:

Bequests
Insurance, Retirement & Pension Plans
Charitable Lead and Remainder Trusts
Charitable Gift Annuities

We'll help you find the giving method that's right for you and the type of clean air and water programs that interest you most. To talk it over, contact Jodi Segal, Director of Development, at jodi@theOEC.org or (614) 487-7506.

Please note that while the Ohio Environmental Council makes every effort to give you accurate information, you should also consult your trusted professionals for legal, financial, insurance, or estate planning advice. The OEC staff are not engaged in rendering legal, accounting, or other professional services.
