Creating A Legacy...

...OF LOVE AND COMPASSION FOR EQUINES.

Including BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE in your estate planning allows you to make a profound and lasting impact on the future of BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE and our equine life-saving program & efforts. It also insures that your generous spirit will continue to help us rescue, rehabilitate and re-home countless numbers of unwanted and neglected equines in need. 

When naming BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE in your will, you may leave a specific dollar amount, a set percentage of your estate, or a particular property. You may also name BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE as the beneficiary of your retirement plan, life insurance policy, bank account, mutual fund, charitable remainder trust, or charitable lead trust. Each of these options may help you reduce your estate taxes.

Donating appreciated stocks or bonds to BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE is sometimes more advantageous than gifts of cash. Here are a few reasons why:

1. You avoid paying capital gains taxes when you contribute appreciated stocks or bonds directly to BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE.

2. You deduct the full value of the stock or bond as a charitable contribution, saving income taxes and lowering the effective cost of your gift. 

3. The full value of your gift of stocks or bonds helps BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE and its equine life-saving program & efforts.

Please let us know if you have included BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE in your estate planning so we may thank you and celebrate your generosity.

All friends of BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE are encouraged to consult their financial or legal advisors when considering estate planning options. 

Running an animal shelter is an expensive endeavor, and running an Equine Rescue can be even a greater one. While the equines at BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE are in our care, they get all of their needs provided with the best Veterinarian care, sound nutrition, and a safe & clean environment... all of which require supplies. Please take a moment to review our Wish List on our rescue web site at: http://www.blueridgerescue.org/WishListFinal.html.

Anything you can provide BLUE RIDGE HORSE RESCUE will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for reading and we hope together we can continue to "Save Lives... One Horse At A Time."

Please feel free to pass along to friends, family and all Horse Lovers.
