Leave a Legacy, Become a Changemaker

Many caring and generous friends like you have found that through their will they are able to provide for loved ones and continue to help refugees get the aid they need to survive, recover and regain control of their lives.

Make a plan

Leave a lasting impact by including CPC in your estate plans and ensure that future generations will have the vital resources needed to thrive.

Through a specific bequest to the Chinese-American Planning Council, Inc. (CPC), you can name a particular dollar amount, or through a residuary bequest, you can give or part of what is remaining after payments of debts, expenses, and specific bequests.

Your legal advisor may wish to include language similar to the following:

"I give to the Chinese-American Planning Council a not-for-profit institution incorporated by the laws of the State of New York, having as its principal address of 45 Suffolk Street, New York, 10002, federal tax identification number (EIN): 13-6202692 [the sum of $______ or _____% of my estate or residuary estate] to be used for its general purposes."

Other ways to include CPC in your lasting legacy:

IRA/Retirement Account: Contact your retirement plan administrator, bank or financial institution for a change-of-beneficiary form. Decide what percentage you would like us to receive and name us, along with the percentage you chose, on the beneficiary form.

Include CPC’s federal tax ID # 13-6202692.

Insurance Policy: You can make CPC a partial or full beneficiary of your life insurance policy. Contact your insurance administrator and request a form.

Life Income Gifts: Through a Charitable Gift Annuity or a Charitable Remainder Trust, you can provide income for life for you and/or a loved one while also supporting CPC.
