Planned Giving: Leave a Lasting Legacy of Healing and Hope

Ensure a brighter future for children and adults with disabilities through the power of horses. When you include the Colorado Therapeutic Riding Center in your will or trust, you create a legacy of compassion and empowerment that will carry forward for generations. Planned and legacy gifts ensure that individuals with physical, cognitive, emotional, and social challenges continue to experience the healing connection between horse and rider today and for years to come. Planned giving allows you to support the future of CTRC while also meeting your personal, financial, and estate-planning goals. Here are some of the most common ways to leave a legacy gift that supports CTRC’s mission:

Ways to Give

Will or Trust

Including CTRC in your will or living trust is a simple, flexible way to provide lasting support for therapeutic riding programs.

Retirement Assets

You can designate CTRC as a beneficiary of your retirement account, helping us bring healing and joy to future generations of riders.

Life Insurance

By naming CTRC as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy, you create a legacy of care that helps sustain our mission.

Charitable Gift Annuity

With a charitable gift annuity, you can support CTRC’s future while also receiving lifetime income for yourself or your loved ones.

IRA Rollover

Support CTRC with an IRA rollover gift. Your distribution will not count as taxable income and will directly benefit our riders and horses.

Stock Gifts

A gift of appreciated stock is a powerful way to sustain CTRC’s programs and may provide you with significant tax benefits.
