Beneficiary Designations:
Retirement Plans, Life Insurance & Donor-Advised Funds

Designating Mustard Seed Communities as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, life insurance policy, or donor-advised fund (DAF) is one of the simplest and most flexible ways to create a lasting legacy of compassion. By naming MSC as a full, partial, or contingent beneficiary of an IRA, 401(k), 403(b), life insurance policy, or DAF, you ensure your commitment to caring for the most vulnerable continues for generations to come.

This type of gift does not require modifying your will and can often be arranged easily, usually online, through your plan administrator, insurance provider, or DAF sponsor at no cost. It’s also a tax-wise way to give: retirement assets left to individuals may be subject to significant income and estate taxes, while directing them to MSC can maximize their impact for children and adults with disabilities, vulnerable mothers, and babies in our care.

A beneficiary designation is fully revocable, giving you the flexibility to make changes at any time. By making this thoughtful decision, you extend Msgr. Gregory Ramkissoon’s vision of planting seeds of hope and compassion, ensuring they continue to grow into a thriving legacy of love and service.
