How it works
List Paul’s Pantry, Inc. as a beneficiary in your estate plan.
Direct how your gift will be used to fight hunger. Paul’s Pantry uses every gift as the donor requests.

- Or you can make an undesignated gift and allow us to use it wherever the need is greatest.
Don’t forget to let us know you’ve chosen to give to us we’d love to say thank you for your generosity!
Tax advantages
There are tax advantages to making a planned gift. Speak to your financial planner about the following potential deductions:
Income tax savings: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allows you to deduct a portion of your charitable donations on your income tax return, provided you itemize.
Reduction of estate taxes: Gifts to a qualified organization, either now or at death, avoids the federal estate tax.
The impact
Your gift provides emergency food to needy families free of charge.
