Types of Planned Gifts

Your planned gift can take different forms. Each gift has benefits for you and for the AKC Canine Health Foundation. We recommend that you consult with a financial planner and/or your attorney when making planned gifts. Please contact us for more information.

Sample language for your financial planner or attorney is provided in the information below for most gift types.

Bequest - a written statement in a donor’s Will or Trust directing that specific assets be transferred to the AKC Canine Health Foundation at the donor's passing. Learn more >>
