A happy elderly couple, a woman with curly white hair and a man with a grey beard, give each other a high-five. They both smile broadly, looking towards each other with closed eyes. The woman wears a white shirt with navy stripes, and a gold necklace. She is seated in front of a silver laptop to the left. The man wears a light blue checkered button-up shirt and holds several white papers in his left hand. The setting appears to be a cozy living room with a green couch in the blurred background.

Planned giving is a thoughtful way to support the Barrow Neurological Foundation's mission of advancing neurological research and care. By including the foundation in your estate plans, you can create a lasting impact that helps further groundbreaking research, enhances patient care, and improves outcomes for individuals affected by neurological disorders. One of the most common forms of planned giving is through a bequest in your will or living trust. You can designate a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or even specific assets to be transferred to the Barrow Neurological Foundation upon your passing. This simple act can help ensure that your commitment to advancing neurological research lives on. Another popular form of planned giving is through a charitable remainder trust. This allows you to receive income from the trust during your lifetime, with the remainder going to the foundation upon your passing. This can be a tax-efficient way to support the foundation while also providing for your own financial needs. Additionally, you can name the Barrow Neurological Foundation as a beneficiary of your retirement account, life insurance policy, or other financial accounts. This form of planned giving allows you to support the foundation without affecting your current financial situation and can provide tax benefits for your estate. No matter which form of planned giving you choose, your support will play a crucial role in advancing neurological research and improving the lives of individuals affected by neurological disorders. Your generosity will help the Barrow Neurological Foundation continue its vital work, bringing hope and healing to countless individuals and families.
