At ONE CARE, we believe everyone deserves the support they need to live independently and with dignity in their own homes. By leaving a legacy gift, you can make a lasting difference in the lives of seniors and people with health challenges in our community.

Why Leave a Legacy?

A legacy gift is a powerful way to:

  • Ensure future generations have access to the care they need.

  • Support programs and services that help people remain safe and connected at home.

  • Leave a lasting tribute that reflects your values and compassion.

Types of Gifts:

There are many ways you can include ONE CARE in your future plans:

  • The donor specifies a dollar amount, a percentage of the estate, or a specific asset (such as property or investments) to be given after their passing.

  • Donors contribute a large gift (during life or through their estate) to build long-term sustainability.

  • A donor can:

    • Transfer ownership of an existing policy,

    • Take out a new policy in ONE CARE’s name, or

    • Name ONE CARE as a beneficiary.

  • By naming ONE CARE as the beneficiary, after the donor’s passing the remaining balance goes directly to ONE CARE.

  • The donor places assets (cash, securities, or real estate) into a trust. They receive income from it, and upon their death or the end of the trust term, the remaining value goes to ONE CARE.

  • Donors can transfer ownership now (and possibly retain the right to live there through a “life interest”) or leave it through their will.

Other types of gifts will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and require board approval.
