Gifts by Will
A willed gift can give you the satisfaction of knowing you have helped to take a bite out of poverty for New Yorkers well into the future.
A willed gift can give you the satisfaction of knowing you have helped to take a bite out of poverty for New Yorkers well into the future.
Gifts by Will
For more than 40 years, POTS has been helping its neighbors in the Bronx lead more stable lives. A simple yet powerful way to make sure that its mission of thoughtfulness and selflessness endures for another 40 years – and beyond – is to include POTS in your will. A willed gift can designate a specific dollar amount or it can specify a percentage of your estate after other disbursements. It can represent a very important means of support for POTS operations – and it can give you the satisfaction of knowing you have helped to take a bite out of poverty for New Yorkers well into the future.
A gift by will does not necessarily involve a complex estate plan, nor must a willed gift be made in any minimum amount. POTS’ development team is happy to work with you and/or your financial advisor to help make sure your gift planning meets all of your expectations. For more information, please contact kgarvey@potsbronx.org.

Whether contributed by individuals, businesses, or community groups, POTS relies on in-kind gifts of food and goods to accomplish all it does.
