Why leave a legacy gift? Legacy giving comes with some great benefits, beyond the satisfaction in knowing that you are supporting a cause you care about. 💖

One of the biggest benefits of legacy giving is that it allows you to give without taking away from your daily needs. Legacy giving won’t dip into your vacation fund or your nest egg, since it is processed after your passing.

There are also some great financial benefits, in the form of a charitable tax credit. After you pass, all your assets will be realized and counted as income, and your family will be left with the taxes owed by your estate. When you include a donation in your will, it triggers a charitable tax credit, which can decrease or even eliminate these taxes. ✨

Legacy giving can also help your family, outside of just financially. With a legacy gift, the causes and values that were important to you in life carry on, giving your family an amazing way to remember you.

Will Power: Change the World with your Will has some great webinars, including one about how to write a Will that supports both your family and your charity of choice. This webinar can be watched on demand at https://willpower.ewebinar.com/webinar/writing-a-will-with-family-and-charity-in-mind-15975 ! 🫶

Meet Our March VIP, Jamie R.! 🫶

Jamie joined our Elmwood community in 2010, quickly becoming known for his kindness and compassion.

He approaches everything he does with dedication and heart, whether it’s his work with SaskAbilities Saskatoon Branch, or his involvement with Special Olympics Saskatchewan - Saskatoon sports. Jamie is an active participant in the SOS Walk Club, 5‑Pin Bowling, Soccer, and Floor Hockey. 👟🎳⚽🏒

One of Jamie’s proudest achievements was traveling to Seoul, South Korea for the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games as part of the floor hockey team and bringing home the gold medal!

When he’s not playing sports, Jamie loves cheering on his favourite teams, especially the Saskatoon Blades and the Toronto Blue Jays. 📣

Family is also very important to Jamie, and he never misses his Saturday night sleepovers with his parents.

Jamie, thank you for helping our Elmwood family shine brighter! ✨

Today is World Down Syndrome Day! 📆

This year’s theme, “Together Against Loneliness,” shines a light on an experience many of us know well and one that research shows people with intellectual disabilities face at significantly higher rates.

Loneliness isn’t inevitable. One of the most powerful ways we can address it is through meaningful inclusion. 💖

Meaningful inclusion is more than opening a door or offering an invitation. It’s about genuinely engaging with people, valuing their contributions, and creating environments where everyone feels supported, welcomed, and connected.

Today, take a moment to reflect on how you can weave meaningful inclusion into your daily life. Together, we can make inclusion not just an ideal but a reality for everyone. 🫶

This month, we’re excited to celebrate Jordan from our Supportive Independent Living Program (SILP) for achieving her goal of winning a medal in Special Olympics Saskatchewan - Saskatoon Gymnastics! 💖

Who can leave a legacy gift? 🤔

A common misconception is that legacy giving is only for the wealthy, which couldn’t be farther from the truth!

When you think about legacy giving, it is important to remember your estate goes beyond the balance in your bank account, it is the value of all your assets. When everything is added together, many people are surprised by the overall value of their estate, even after accounting for debts. A legacy gift of any size can make a meaningful difference. 💖

Legacy giving is about intention, not wealth. Anyone can create a legacy that reflects their generosity and the impact they want to have.

If you're curious about what kind of difference your own legacy gift could make, try Will Power: Change the World with your Will's easy Legacy Calculator here: https://www.willpower.ca/legacy-calculator/. You may be surprised by the value of your estate! ✨

Stay tuned for Part 3 of our series as we explore why more Canadians are choosing to give this way.
