Gift Planning
For most donors, the largest and most significant charitable gift any person will make during a lifetime is a Planned Gift that is donated over time, and/or following a donor's death.
The members of the CHP 11-99 Foundation's Board of Directors invite you to join hundreds of other committed and forward-thinking 11-99 Foundation friends and supporters, by naming the California Highway Patrol 11-99 Foundation as a recipient in your will, trust or other estate planning instrument.
For more information concerning how interested donors may positively impact the lives and futures of worthy current and future CHP family members, while securing tax benefits for said donors' own family members through planned giving, please visit our new dedicated Gift Planning site by clicking here, or contact a member of the CHP 11-99 Foundation's Gift Planning staff via email to Gift Planning.
Throughout 2007, a select group of major donors who execute Planned Gifts naming the CHP 11-99 Foundation as beneficiary will become Charter Members of the 11-99 Foundation's new Bob Weinberg Legacy Society.
Generous Legacy Gift Endows Broderick Crawford Benefits Program
Some of us are dedicated enough to assist others through hands-on work and direct deed, while some of us assist through the provision of major charitable gifts. A very select, special few among us have the capacity, fortitude, and commitment to do both. To honor Kelly Crawford's father, 1950s television series icon and Academy Award winner Broderick Crawford, in perpetuity, and to support the 11-99 Foundation's death and emergency benefits program, Kelly and his wife Jean have become Charter Members of the 11-99 Foundation's Bob Weinberg Legacy Society.
Gift Planning Makes Wayne Reynolds a Timeless Hero for Thousands
Now-deceased California Highway Patrol Officer Wayne Reynolds was born during World War I. As an Enlisted commercial Pilot member of the U.S. Army Air Forces Reserve, he served his country during World War II. Following his military service, he served the citizens of California for 22 years, as a sworn Officer of the CHP, in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. Officer Reynolds died in 1999, at the age of 84. Consistent with her late father's estate plan wishes, in November, 2005, one of Officer Reynolds' surviving children, Carole Logsdon, of Fullerton, graciously contacted the CHP 11-99 Foundation and dutifully provided a $200,000 donation from her father's estate to support the 11-99 Foundation's programs!
CHP Officer Wayne Reynolds' long-planned major gift now is being used to support the CHP 11-99 Foundation's Benefits and Scholarship Programs, which provide emergency and death Benefits and college Scholarships to assist thousands of CHP family members. A quiet hero in World War II and an unsung daily hero during his 22 years of CHP service, because of his extraordinary planned gift, CHP Officer Wayne Reynolds will be remembered in perpetuity by the thousands of CHP family members who are assisted as a result of his generosity and planning.
