Planned Giving

Join the ISAIAH Legacy Society 🕯️

 “Including ISAIAH in our will was an easy decision. It’s one way to invest in an organization that puts people first. I also want to honor the leaders that I worked alongside on the St. Paul and East Metro team. Together we have lobbied legislators, testified at hearings, celebrated victories, mourned defeats, crossed bridges, and encouraged each other to grow as organizers and citizens. For me, ISAIAH has become a second home. I hope our gift makes it possible for others to have that same opportunity.”

— Duane Johnson, St. Paul, Minnesota

Planned giving offers a unique way to sustain our work for generations to come while aligning with your personal, financial, and philanthropic goals.

By including ISAIAH in your estate plans, you join a circle of dedicated leaders committed to ensuring the long-term impact of our work. The ISAIAH Legacy Society recognizes individuals who make a provision for ISAIAH in their will, trust, or other planned gifts. This collective effort ensures our mission for justice and equity continues for future generations.

If you’ve already made a planned gift, we invite you to complete a Letter of Intent so we can acknowledge your commitment and welcome you to the ISAIAH Legacy Society. Your contribution strengthens our community and helps secure a brighter future for all Minnesotans.

For more information or to discuss your giving options, please reach out to us. We are here to help you explore your options and find the right approach that honors your values and solidifies your commitment to ISAIAH’s mission for years to come. Contact us to schedule a confidential conversation, and we can work together with you, your attorney, and financial advisors to align your goals with ISAIAH’s long-term vision​.

Common Types

of Planned Gifts 🎁

  • Name ISAIAH as a beneficiary to receive a specific amount, percentage, or remainder of your estate.

  • Designate ISAIAH as a beneficiary on your retirement plans, life insurance policies, or bank accounts.

  • Establish gifts that provide you or a loved one with income for life while ensuring future support for ISAIAH.

  • We also welcome other forms of planned gifts that align with your financial and philanthropic goals. Please contact us for more details about these options and to discuss the best way for you to make a lasting commitment to ISAIAH’s work for a better Minnesota.

Planned gifts can be revocable or irrevocable. Revocable gifts, like a bequest in a will or a beneficiary designation, allow flexibility if your circumstances change. Irrevocable gifts, like charitable remainder trusts, can provide immediate tax benefits and potential income while deferring the transfer of assets until later. These and other options allow you to support ISAIAH’s long-term mission while maintaining financial security.
