Friend, children continue to face increasingly difficult situations as the effects of climate change, natural disasters and poverty worsen worldwide. As we think about the future of UNICEF USA’s work, we won’t stop until every child is healthy, educated, protected and respected.
And thanks to committed donors who have chosen to include UNICEF USA in their estate plans, we'll have the support we need to be there for children long into the future.
But what does it look like to make UNICEF USA part of your legacy? Our team is here to answer some common questions about leaving a planned gift and show you the different ways you can be part of our impactful community of Legacy Circle donors:
Legacy Circle donors often choose to include a gift to UNICEF USA in a will or trust. They may also name the organization as a beneficiary of their retirement plan assets or life insurance policies, which is as simple as completing a form.
To remember UNICEF USA in your will, share the following information with your attorney. To name UNICEF USA a beneficiary of your retirement plan or insurance policy, request a beneficiary designation form from the designated administrator and include the following information.

We do not know what children will need in the future, but with your help, UNICEF will be there to deliver. This is why most Legacy Circle donors give flexibly, so UNICEF can remain nimble and responsive to children’s evolving needs.
You can use the following sample bequest language in your will: “I give to UNICEF USA, a New York not-for-profit corporation with its principal offices at 125 Maiden Lane, New York, New York 10038, (the sum of $____ or ____% of my residuary estate) to be used for its general purposes. This gift shall be used as UNICEF USA's Board of Directors, in its discretion, believes to be appropriate to further the mission of UNICEF USA.”
Gifts through Donor-Advised Funds or
appreciated securities or stocks may allow you to receive income tax savings and eliminate capital gains taxes on the transfer, up to 20%. If you’re 70 ½ or older,
giving directly from your IRA can make an immediate impact and you will not be required to pay income taxes on the gift.
You can reply directly to this email or schedule a phone call today to connect with a planned giving officer. Our team is here to help and discuss ways to leave a legacy that is meaningful to you.
