​Leave a Legacy

WHEN YOU INCLUDE THE MITCHELL THORP FOUNDATION IN YOUR ESTATE PLAN, YOU CONTINUE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, WELL INTO THE FUTURE, FOR OUR SERIOUSLY ILL CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES.

​Gifts like this are referred to as "planned gifts" because they reflect your charitable plans and hopes for the future. There are as many ways to make a planned gift to the Mitchell Thorp Foundation as there are charitable intentions. Below are a few suggestions.

• Bequests: Name Mitchell Thorp Foundation as a charitable beneficiary in your will or trust. Go to the Bequest information page for suggested bequest language.
• Designations: Name the Mitchell Thorp Foundation as a full or partial beneficiary of a life insurance policy, bank account, or brokerage account.
• Retirement Plans: Name the Mitchell Thorp Foundation as a beneficiary of a retirement plan (your tax deferred IRA, 401(k) or 403(b) retirement plan) and possibly avoid double taxation while also supporting our work.

Consult your financial planner and/or attorney about your legacy and then let us know so we can thank you. Please contact Brad Thorp at [email protected] or 760-603-8853 to discuss Planned Giving options.
