Heritage Fund
The Quiet Campaign to Support IASD’s Future
Twenty-five years after the founding of the International Association for the Study of Dreams, members and friends inaugurated the Heritage Fund to foster the IASD mission for future generations. A few benefactors have already made estate bequests to start us on our way.
Will you help to support the future of IASD and dreaming?
A quiet campaign
The IASD Heritage Fund is open to gifts from anyone. However, this is a quiet campaign.
We don’t plan to call, solicit or buttonhole you to make a pledge. Instead, we intend to quietly remind our talented and generous members of this ongoing campaign and to welcome inquiries concerning contributions.
For Wills
If you are thinking about making a gift to the International Association for the Study of Dreams in your will or other estate plans, thank you! Here is some suggested wording to use:
After fulfilling all other provisions, I hereby give, devise and bequeath to the International Association for the Study of Dreams (Federal tax ID # 68-0066783), a charitable organization incorporated under the laws of the State of California, {X} percent of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate [or if a specific amount, {X} dollars, euros, etc.].
For Other Gifts
To assist donors in making any type of gift or bequest, including securities, annuities and trusts, as well as other types of property such as art, antiques, jewelry or real estate, IASD has partnered with a large Community Foundation in the state of California. With their professional staff and decades of expertise, this organization can handle all the details of complex gift arrangements.
Please contact the Central Office manager to learn more about this option.
