A legacy gift is a gift you plan for today that will benefit the Kinzler Foundation and grieving families in need far into the future. It may also provide you with tax advantages.

At the Kinzler Foundation, we provide families in crisis with what they need most: financial assistance in the short-term, connection to community resources for the long-term, and support from families who have walked this path before. In this way, we support West Michigan families as they move forward after the sudden loss of a parent or primary caregiver. You can learn more about our work and mission here. Throughout our history, we’ve helped hundreds of families with practical support. Find some of there stories here.

A legacy gift can be as simple as making the Jason Kinzler Family First Foundation a beneficiary of a retirement account or life insurance policy, or including us in your trust or will. Legacy gifts also include gifts of appreciated securities and gifts from IRAs – an increasingly popular way to give for those over age 70.5.
