Child Watch is now open :)
If you would like to leave a legacy for current and future families of Martha's Vineyard the Y invites you to consider making a planned gift and joining a group of individuals who care deeply for our Island. The ISLAND LEGACY SOCIETY was created to recognize our Y family supporters who make gift plans to benefit our Island community throughout and beyond their lifetimes. Legacy gifts made to the Y help ensure that affordable and free health and wellness, youth, and community programs will be available for future generations.
One hundred percent of your contribution will benefit local programs. Gifts are kept in perpetuity and invested to generate income used to sustain the Y. Please consider making the ISLAND LEGACY SOCIETY part of your estate plan today.
Pledge FormDesignate the Y to receive gifts through a will or trust that could include cash, real estate, stocks, and bonds.
A contract that provides you or your beneficiaries a fixed annual income in return for your tax-deductible donation of cash, investments, or other assets.
Name the Y the beneficiary of your retirement plan assets, possibly reducing your heirs' tax burden.
Name the Y as a primary or secondary beneficiary in your insurance contract.
Through a special arrangement, establish a trust and name the Y beneficiary.
Outright gifts, including cash, land stock, insurance or other marketing assets, to this fund are managed by Rockland Trust. Earnings on the contributions support the Y annually, while the principle continues to grow and serve into perpetuity.
Now Valued at over 3 Million, this fund was established by visionary members of our community who wanted their charitable gifts to care for Island generations to come.
