Ways to Support Roots and Wings
Above and Beyond Awards
Support with In-Kind Donations
Help us celebrate our teachers through in-kind donations for our “Above and Beyond” Awards. Your contributions can make a significant impact!
If your business offers products or services that can serve as gifts, we would love to include them! Your in-kind donations will help us honor those who go above and beyond in their commitment to students and the community. Thank you for supporting our teachers!
• Gift Cards — Provide gift cards to local businesses or educational suppliers, allowing award-winning teachers to choose what they need or enjoy a special treat.
• Gifts — Consider including “coupons” for services, products, or experiences, such as spa days, meal deliveries, or local attractions, to show teachers they are truly valued.
Your in-kind donations will help us honor those who go above and beyond in their commitment to students and the community. Thank you for supporting our teachers!

Giving Options
At Roots and Wings Inc., we are committed to nurturing the next generation through our programs and initiatives. One meaningful way to support our mission is through planned or legacy giving, allowing you to make a lasting impact on the future of our community while enjoying potential tax benefits.
Planned Giving
This option enables you to make a significant gift to Roots and Wings Inc. during your lifetime or as part of your estate plan. Here are some common forms of planned giving:
• Bequests — You can designate a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or specific assets to be given to Roots and Wings Inc. upon your passing. This is a straightforward way to leave a legacy and can be included in your will or living trust.
• Charitable Remainder Trusts — By establishing a charitable remainder trust, you can donate assets while retaining an income stream for yourself or your beneficiaries. After a specified period, the remaining assets in the trust will be transferred to Roots and Wings Inc., providing us with vital support for our programs.
• Life Insurance Policies — You can name Roots and Wings Inc. as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy or even donate an existing policy. This allows you to make a significant gift that may be larger than what you could provide during your lifetime, while also potentially offering tax advantages.
Legacy Giving
By choosing to leave a legacy gift, you ensure that your values and commitment to education and empowerment continue beyond your lifetime. Your generosity will help us sustain our programs for years to come.
For more information on how you can make a difference through planned or legacy giving, please email us. Your support helps us create a brighter future for our community!
