Planned gifts are often thought of as something done later in life, but they can be started at any age and are a surprisingly easy way to support UW-River Falls. There are several ways to structure a charitable gift that furthers UWRF's mission while providing tax and other financial benefits to the donor and their loved ones. Visit http://uwrflegacy.org/ for more information.
