PLANNED GIVING
Planned gifts, such as bequests or charitable trusts, can be an advantageous way to provide for a future gift to charity. You can continue to care for yourself and loved ones while making an impact on the Bluegrass community.
​

​
-
Provide for you or your loved ones
-
Entitle you to charitable income and/or gift or estate tax deductions
-
Enable you to leave a legacy for community through United Way
​
You can explore different types of planned gifts and different assets to give.

Fred R. Kissling, Jr. was a longtime advocate of United Way of the Bluegrass. He was a loyal volunteer and donor who gave generously of his time and resources. Mr. Kissling was the campaign chair for UWBG in 1976 which was the first time we eclipsed $1,000,000 in fundraising. In true Fred fashion, he decided to make a final, long-lasting impact by leaving the largest planned gift in United Way of the Bluegrass history. Due to his unwavering support and selfless lifestyle, we honor him by naming our planned giving society - The Kissling Circle.
