Why choose Legacy Giving with AADI?
Impact
Every donation helps us train more assistance dogs, who go on to transform the lives of families. Each dog requires two years and €25,000 to fully train. Your support helps make this life-changing service possible for more families.
Leave a Legacy
A legacy gift is a powerful way to ensure your values live on. By including AADI in your will, you create a lasting impact and demonstrate your commitment to meaningful social change.
Tax Efficiency
Legacy gifts can also help reduce the inheritance tax burden on your estate, making them a tax-efficient way to support a cause you care about.
Bequests
Including a gift to AADI in your will is one of the simplest and most meaningful ways to support our work. A bequest ensures that your legacy continues to make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
Life Insurance Policies
Consider nominating AADI as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy. This allows you to make a substantial future gift, ensuring your support continues long into the future.
Retirement Plan Assets
Designating AADI as a beneficiary of your retirement plan assets not only supports our mission but can also provide significant tax advantages for your estate. It’s a win-win way to maximize the impact of your generosity.
When we got Dougal, I knew things would change, there was light at the end of the tunnel. Anna has a complete lack of awareness of safety. She has no sense of what is safe and what is not. Having Dougal now enabled us to go out as a family. Just walk down the street. Having Dougal is an absolute gift and our family doesn’t take him for granted for one minute. If you walked in my shoes for one day, you would see what it was like and what a difference Dougal has made. I wish the same for any family with a child who needs a dog.”
