Bequests to Eagle Nature Foundation
A bequest to the Eagle Nature Foundation, Ltd. (ENF) is a unique and precious way
to preserve the natural environment for both the bald eagle and man for
generations to come. Through bequest giving, your concern for wilderness, wildlife
preservation, and endangered species extends far beyond your own lifetime.

There are many forms of bequests as shown in the following Bequest Types.  We
urge you to study these brief descriptions of bequest types, various tax advantages,

and grandchildren in the natural world.

    Bequest Types
  1. The most useful bequest type is an unrestricted outright gift, allowing
    specific use to be determined by the ENF Board of Directors. This permits
    flexibility to cope with changing programs, problems, and financial
    conditions.

    such as land purchase, bald eagle research, environmental education, and
    endangered species preservation , to be used as directed by you.
  3. Your bequest may specify that only income from investment may be used,
    thus perpetuating your present annual gift. This would go into our
    Endowment Fund.
  4. You may also specify that the principal gift, as well as income from its
    investment, may be used by ENF.

    Tax Advantages
  1. A bequest gift of money, property, or securities is free of estate or
    inheritance taxes.
  2. A bequest gift making ENF a life insurance beneficiary may also have tax
    advantages.
  3. A one-time gift of money, securities, or land is tax deductible.
  4. A gift spread over a period of years may have tax benefits.
  5. Property given to ENF may be reserved for your lifetime use, and still
    provide substantial tax benefits.

gladly provide any information or assistance regarding bequest types and tax
