Planned giving is essential because it provides long-term financial stability for Chanticleer while allowing donors to leave a lasting legacy.

By including Chanticleer in your estate plans, donors can make a significant impact beyond their lifetime, often in ways that wouldn’t be possible through immediate gifts.

Planned gifts, such as bequests, charitable gift annuities, and trusts, help sustain programs, support future growth, and ensure the organization’s mission continues for generations to come.

Additionally, a planned gift to Chanticleer can offer financial benefits to donors, including tax advantages and the ability to provide for loved ones while supporting a cause they care about.

You can download your Bequest Intent Form here and mail it to our office (address at the bottom of the page), or email it to our Director of Development, Zachary Burgess, at zburgess@chanticleeer.org
