When you include ACCESS as part of your estate plan, you ensure that community care and support is part of your legacy. Unrestricted bequest gifts give us the greatest flexibility to use funds where they are most needed.
You may leave ACCESS:
Naming ACCESS as a beneficiary on your retirement account or life insurance policy is a simple and powerful way to support the important work of our organization without changing your will or living trust. Additionally, individuals who inherit retirement plan assets are usually required to pay income tax on them, so they’re often considered among the best assets to leave to charity.
Ask your retirement plan administrator or financial institution for a change of beneficiary form to name ACCESS as a charity beneficiary.

If you’re 70-1/2 or older, you can donate up to $100,000 per tax year directly from an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to charities like ACCESS. Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD), otherwise known as IRA charitable rollovers or IRA gifts, are a great way to support our lifesaving work by allowing your dollars to go further: QCDs may be excluded from your taxable income and qualify towards your required minimum distribution (RMD).
If you’d like to make a QCD gift, your financial institution should make the check out to “ACCESS” and mail to our mailing address:
